    Solution

    The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) can designate individuals as ā€œterroristsā€ under the amended anti-terror law that was passed by the Parliament in 2019. Ā  The Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA), enacted in 1967, was first amended in 2004, 2008 and 2013. Ā  The UAPA as amended in August 2019 gave the MHA the power to designate individuals as terrorists.
