Publisher's Synopsis
Justice C.K. Takwani's "Lectures on Administrative Law" explains the fundamental principles of Administrative Law lucidly and logically. The book discusses all the essential aspects in Administrative Law, such as, its relationship with constitutional law, principles of delegated legislation, natural justice, and judicial review and their application to the administrative machinery of India. In the last ten years, the scope of Administrative Law has grown considerably. Justice C.K. Takwani (Thakker), a distinguished Judge of the Supreme Court of India, and an eminent scholar, has thoroughly revised and updated the fourth edition with all the new case laws and added new discussion in several areas, such as, the competing Red Light and Green Light theories, the topics of delegated legislation, natural justice and judicial review, referring to over 1000 cases. This masterpiece is most sought after by law students and junior members of Bar; though, the book is equally valuable for practising lawyers and judges. Various universities have also prescribed the book as essential reading at the LL.B. and LL.M. level. Reviews: 'Your book is clearly an important contribution to this subject, which now takes up so much judicial time both in India and in Britain. I can see that it is thorough and scholarly, and I will find it most useful since I try to keep up some acquaintance with Indian law' - Prof. Emeritus Sir William Wade, University of Cambridge.
