With the development of society and growing complexity between the relationship of the administrative authorities and the people, strict conformity with Administrative law has become very indispensable to the society.

In order to regulate these complex, relations, some law is necessary, which may bring about regulatory certainty and at the same time may check the misuse of powers vested in the administration. With the growth of the society, particularly in the Indian context, its complexity has increased manifold and thereby presenting new challenges to the administration and we can have the appraisal of the same only when we make a comparative study of the duties of the administration in the ancient times with that of the modern times.

There is an increasing and timely interest in Indian administrative law, both amongst scholars of Indian law, as well as comparativist scholars of public law. This Conclave aims to lay the foundation for further research on Indian administrative law and promote work in this vital field, especially amongst early career researchers.

It will explore foundational questions in the field, with a focus on distinctive features of Indian administrative law (compared with administrative law in other common law jurisdictions). The emphasis shall be upon administrative rules and policies concerning the executive, judiciary and the people of the country.

Diverse methods and approaches to administrative law including doctrinal, critical, normative/philosophical, empirical, historical, etc. will be discussed.
