Delhi Arrested 34 Under UAPA in 2020. Here's Why the Home Ministry Won't List Them Out. -Gaurav Vivek Bhatnagar

The list comprises 26 Muslims, 21 Sikhs, one member of a Scheduled Tribe and two Hindus, both of whom were arrested for their role in the protests against the CAA, which discriminates against Muslims.

New Delhi: Last month, when Trinamool Congress’s Lok Sabha MP Mala Roy asked the Union home ministry for “(a) the total number of cases registered by Delhi Police under UAPA during the last one year; and (b) the names of persons against whom cases have been registered under UAPA during the above period”, the concerned minister responded with a partial answer.

Union minister of state (MoS) for home affairs Nityanand Rai disclosed that nine cases were registered and 34 persons were arrested in Delhi under the UAPA during 2020. However, he added that “disclosure of further details of cases may not be in a larger public interest as the same may impact the cases”.

This refusal was strange as the name of every person arrested or chargesheeted under UAPA is already in the public domain and it is not clear why mentioning them again would “impact the cases”.
