520 _aV.G. Ramachandran's Law of Writs first published in 1963 has been regarded as a standard work on the subject, useful to the Bar and the Bench as also the academia. The last edition was in 2006 with supplements in 2012 and 2017, When the present revising author was asked about a couple of years ago it was understood that a revised edition was overdue and the task was taken up with a sense of humility and dedication. One of the hallmarks of a civilised society is the assurance that one lives under a system that is fair. The aim of public law is to discipline the exercise of power through judicial oversight. The movement of administrative law over the last few decades has been towards a culture of justification. Holding public authorities accountable and ensuring fairness and reasonableness in all their actions and decisions is enforced through judicial review which is considered as an unmistakable distinguishing feature of a constitutional state. The tools employed for exercising the power of judicial review are the writs. Their significance in our system of justice dispensation cannot be over emphasised. This work deals with the law relating to writs in its various aspects and nuances. ---provided by publisher
