Objectives
Necessarily, a person specializing in administrative law has to be equipped with the
knowledge on the working of early systems, the present constitutional scheme, the
legislative powers of the State transferring responsibility to local bodies and on the
increasing regulatory and financial powers of the local bodies. The nature of the democratic
functioning of these elected bodies and the scope of administrative control as well of the
judicial control over them are challenging areas for students of administrative law to
evaluate and help formulation of new and pragmatic working methods.
With the introduction of the Constitution seventy third and seventy fourth amendments,
India is moving towards the ideal of direct democracy endowing the local bodies with
powers of administration in matters of regional and local importance. This change has added
new vistas of Indian democracy and it offers an opportunity to translate the Gandhian
concept of Gram Swaraj into practice.

I herewith declare that I wrote and composed the term paper about the
topic………………………………………………............................independently.
I did not use any other sources, figures or resources than the ones stated in the
bibliography, be they printed sources or sources off the internet. This includes
possible figures or tables. I marked all passages and sentences in my work that
were taken from other sources clearly as such and named the exact source.
Furthermore I declare that – to my best knowledge – this work has never before
been submitted by me or somebody else at this or any other university. I am aware
that a noncompliance with this declaration may result in a grading of my work as
“insufficient”. I also know that a copyright violation as well as an attempted fraud
may be prosecuted and a deliberate infringement on any laws concerning cheating
constitutes an administrative offence, for which a penalty can be inflicted

Objective: -
The Indian Constitution adopts federal Governments for various reasons. Powers is
divided between union and the states in such a way that matters of national importance
are entrusted to the center and matters of local importance are left to the states. The
Constitution departs from the model of classical federalism in many ways. This departure
was made to suit the peculiar Indian circumstances. However, the Constitutional
provisions were in practice further distorted so as to made the state totally subservient to
the center. Distribution of fiscal powers is the nerve center of the federal system. In this
paper, the students will be made conscious of various aspects of federal principles and
their working in the Indian context with a view to ultimately assessing the Indian
experience critically. He must clearly understand various emerging forces such as
regionalism, sub-national loyalties and nationalism. He should be able to see the working
of the Constitutional process as a vital element of the political economy.

criminal, anti-social and selfish escapist tendencies. While their positive potential as mass
educators has to be harnessed for developmental purposes, their negative, harmful
potential has to be curbed in public interest. Laws plays a dual role vis-à-vis such media.
