Explanation

Preventive detention laws primarily restrain the Right to Freedom (Articles 19-22). Specifically, Article 22 provides for preventive detention while laying down certain safeguards. Personal liberty can be curtailed through preventive detention, which is why it's considered an exception to fundamental rights rather than a violation.
