India Administrative Law

Discretion means the power to decide or act according to one’s judgment. Indian law grants some discretionary powers to administrative authorities. Indian law, as it exists now, lays down broad limits within which an administrative authority is expected to function.

Public administration is a government’s functional arm that enables it to discharge growing responsibilities within an organized framework of well-established procedures. The quality of public administration determines the efficiency with which a government is able to reach out to fulfill the needs of its people and carry forward its objectives into practice.
