After the kidnapping of the IC-814 in 1999 and the terrorist attack on the Parliament House in 2001, the government realized the need for a strict law and growing terror threats. After which it was implemented by the then NDA government in 2002 to strictly combat terrorist activities. Under this Act, any suspect can be detained 180 days. Terrorist organizations can be arrested on the suspicion of a relationship. If money is raised for terrorism, it can also be considered the terrorist act. Special rights such as telephone plugs, seizure on property and witnesses were also under this Act. Why was it canceled? Many major terrorist cases have been completed under Pota.
