POTA (Prevention of Terrorism Act) was enacted by the NDA government in 2002 and was repealed by the UPA government in 2004, citing concerns about its misuse and potential for human rights violations. TADA (Terrorist and Disruptive Activities (Prevention) Act) was an earlier anti-terror law that had lapsed before POTA was introduced.
