Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Judges of High Court.

The Advisory Board under Article 22 of the Indian Constitution plays a vital role in the preventive detention process. By comprising individuals who are or have been qualified to be High Court judges, the board ensures that detentions are reviewed with the utmost legal expertise and impartiality, providing an important safeguard against potential abuses of preventive detention laws.

The board examines the grounds of detention to ensure they meet legal and constitutional standards. This review process helps prevent arbitrary or unjust detentions.

After reviewing a case, the Advisory Board makes recommendations to the government. If the board finds that the detention is not justified, it can recommend the release of the detainee.
