Quasi-Judicial Proceedings - Paperback

by Chidambaram Ramesh (Author)

Chidambaram Ramesh' "Quasi-judicial Proceedings" explains the basic principles of quasi-judicial proceedings lucidly and with the aid of relevant case laws. The book discusses all the essential aspects of a quasi-judicial order, such as, elements of a fair quasi-judicial hearing, nature of the proceedings, principles of natural justice, techniques on judgment writing, judicial review and the powers of the inquiry officer under the Code of Civil Procedure. It brings together important ideas and experiences about how quasi-judicial authorities are to go about their role of conducting a quasi-judicial hearing and tries to demystify the task of drafting a credible, professional and dignified quasi-judicial order. Being the first book in India exclusively on quasi-judicial matters, and illustrated richly with many judicial references, the main object of the publication is to provide an overview of what constitutes a quasi-judicial order and how to make it withstand the wider test of judicial scrutiny.
