Administrative law is based on the assumption that there is a politically organised society and from that assumption certain rules relating to the control of administration emerge which are called administrative law.

Definition:

In simple words administrative law is the law relating to the administrative operation of government. It deals with powers and duties of administrative authorities, the procedure followed by them in exercising the powers and discharging the duties and the remedies available to an aggrieved person when his rights are affected by any administrative action.
