The Supreme Court rejected Amritpal Singh's plea against his detention under the National Security Act, directing him to approach the Punjab and Haryana High Court instead.

On November 10, 2025, the Supreme Court of India refused to entertain a plea from Amritpal Singh, the leader of the 'Waris Punjab De' outfit, challenging his detention under the National Security Act (NSA). The court directed Singh to approach the Punjab and Haryana High Court, which is required to resolve his petition within six weeks. Singh has been detained for over two years, primarily based on a single FIR for which a chargesheet has already been filed. The NSA allows for the detention of individuals deemed a threat to national security. Singh, who previously contested the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, was arrested in April 2023 after a month-long manhunt. His detention follows incidents involving clashes with police and allegations of inciting disharmony and violence.
