EBC’s Lectures on Administrative Law by C. K. Takwani – 8th Edition 2024.
Description:
ectures on Administrative Law by Justice C.K. Thakker (Takwani) is the most sought after work on this subject among law students and members of the Bar.
The work presents the fundamental principles of administrative law as they have developed through the judicial process. In light of recent legal trends, this book thoroughly examines the principles of natural justice, the doctrine of judicial review, and judicial remedies, with reference to relevant case law.
The eighth edition acknowledges the latest developments in both Indian and international jurisprudence. It incorporates recent case law and introduces new topics to enhance comprehensiveness. Additionally, a new feature of “Suggested Readings” has been added, compiling articles by legal experts to broaden the scope of discussion.
In this edition, the author has meticulously considered developments in the subject matter both within India and abroad. Case law up to 2023 has been covered, including significant judgments such as Rajeev Suri v. DDA, (2022) 11 SCC 1 and State of Jharkhand v. Brahmputra Metallics Ltd., (2023) 10 SCC 634, which extensively address the doctrine of legitimate expectation as interpreted by the Supreme Court. Various topics are discussed in depth, with the addition of several new ones. To enhance clarity and organisation, the work has been structured more methodically by consolidating all relevant doctrines, such as the doctrine of proportionality, the doctrine of estoppel, and the doctrine of legitimate expectation, into a single lecture.
This book will be immensely useful to students of LL B and LL M, administrators, judges, advocates, researchers and those interested in acquiring knowledge of this subject.
