What is UAPA? 
 It is a law aimed at prevention of unlawful activities associations in India. Its main 
objective was to make powers available for dealing with activities directed against the 
integrity and sovereignty of India 
 The National Integration Council appointed a Committee on National Integration and 
Regionalisation to look into, the aspect of putting reasonable restrictions in the interests 
of the sovereignty and integrity of India. 
 The agenda of the NIC limited itself to communalism, casteism and regionalism and not 
terrorism. 
 Pursuant to the acceptance of recommendations of the Committee, the Constitution 
(Sixteenth Amendment) Act, 1963 was enacted to impose, by law, reasonable 
restrictions in the interests of the sovereignty and integrity of India.

Covenant on Civil and Political Rights.

Home Affairs(MHA) is required. However, for prosecution under sections 16, 17 
and 18, the permission of the respective State government is required. Section 25 
allows the NIA to seize property it considers to be proceeds of terrorism, with the 
written consent of the Director General of Police (DGP) of the State 
 In Thwaha Fasal vs Union of India, the Court has acted in its introspective 
jurisdiction and deconstructed the provisions of the Unlawful Activities 
(Prevention) Act (UAPA) with a great sense of legal realism.

and Section 39 deals with “offence relating to support given to a terrorist 
organisation.”
