#AIMIM MP Asaduddin Owaisi raises concerns over Section 187(3) of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, which allows police custody beyond 15 days -

"Even under UAPA, a police superintendent has to submit an affidavit in court explaining reasons for seeking police custody of an accused after 30 days. This has also been removed here. So, under this provision, an accused will have to be in jail for longer than under UAPA. And who will be in jail? Muslims, Dalits, Adivasis and they will not get bail."
