Explanation:

Article 22 deals with the protection against arrest and detention in certain cases. This article is applicable to both citizens and non-citizens. This provision extends certain procedural safeguards for individuals in case of an arrest.

Under the preventive detention as enshrined under Article 22, a person cannot be detained for more than three months.
The grounds of detention should be communicated to the detenu( a person held in custody; a detainee).
Both the Parliament and the State Legislature can make a law of Preventive Detention for reasons connected with the security of a state and maintenance of public order. For reasons connected to defence, only the parliament can make laws of preventive detention.

Hence both statements 1&2 are correct.
