What is a Judicial Review?
According to the recent amendment, matters related to such proceedings must commence within 3 months from the date when grounds for the application first arose. Following are the time limits for judicial review proceedings of other matters:
The High Court is concerned with the fairness of the decision-making process of the administrative bodies, rather than the correctness of the decision itself. The court takes all the relevant considerations into account,
to check for evidence regarding any fraud, deceit, bad faith, or if the decision taken by the legal body had it in its capacity to do so.
