Senior Congress leader P Chidambaram on Friday hit out at the Modi Government for keeping former Jammu & Kashmir Chief Minister Farooq Abdullah under detention for seven months, alleging that "despotism and arbitrariness"constitute the rule of law in the Union Territory.
Chidambaram's attack on the government came after Abdullah was released following the Jammu and Kashmir administration's revoking of the stringent Public Safety Act (PSA) against the former chief minister.
