SC to hear Varun's plea challenging NSA

Another crucial case that is scheduled to come up for hearing at the Supreme Court on Monday is Varun Gandhi's petition challenging his detention under National Security Act.

Varun is in Etah jail for the last couple of weeks after being booked under NSA by the UP government.

Varun alleged that his arrest is a fallout of political vendetta to stop him from contesting elections and his detention is illegal. However, the Mayawati government has denied these allegations in its reply and said Varun's detention is a must to keep public order in place.

The Supreme Court will decide on Monday whether his detention under NSA is legal or not.
