Information not given to family
The family alleges that they have not been given any information about increasing the NSA and neither do they have any information about it.

There will be an appeal in the High Court
Senior Advocate RS Bains also termed NSA extending for the third time as the government’s failure. He said that the government should run trials in the FIR lodged on Amritpal. He indicated that he would once again challenge this decision in the High Court. Advocate Bains is the same, who has already filed an application in the court for imposing NSA on Amritpal Singh.
