The providing of material by the detaining authority is not mere formality and if the same is not done by the detaining authority the detention order cannot be upheld in law.\u201d <\/em>With respect to the alleged grounds of detention being bad in law, the Court noted,<em> \u201cThe order of detention cannot be passed on mere assumptions and the detaining authority has to address itself to the question if the ordinary law to which the petitioner is subjected to, is sufficient to deal with the situation.\u201d <\/em>Reliance was further placed on, <em>Rekha v. State of Tamil Nadu,<\/em> (2011) 5 SCC 244, wherein the Supreme Court held, <em>\u201cwhenever an order under a preventive detention law is challenged one of the questions the court must ask in deciding its legality is: Was the ordinary law of the land sufficient to deal with the situation? If the answer is in the affirmative, the detention order will be illegal. In the present case, the charge against the detenue was of selling expired drugs after changing their labels. Surely the relevant provisions in the Indian Penal Code and the Drugs and Cosmetics Act were sufficient to deal with this situation.
