Question

What are the provisions of constitution of india that fall in administrative law?

Answer 1

The Indian system of government is of quasi-judicial nature where resembling a federal government, powers are distributed between the centre and the state and similar to unitary form because of retention of powers to the Union during emergency. Here the state government relinquishes their rights to the central government to retain security and pursuit of public welfare. It was at the time when neighbouring country, China attacked the northern borders posing a threat to the security of India, when for the first time the Union assumed powers to handle such a situation. Since then the President was assigned with extraordinary powers to act in situations of Emergency.

Part XVIII of the Constitution has made provision for three kinds of emergencies:

National Emergency

Emergency due to failure of constitutional machinery in states

Financial Emergencies
