Abstract

This paper aims to analyze how the doctrine of ultra vires becomes one of the most crucial forms in regulating the government action. When any administrative act or rule goes beyond the boundaries of power delegated by the statute it is considered to be ultra vires and is deprived of any legal effect. Power conferred on legislature and executives are very wide and are therefore subjected to be reviewed by judiciary. “The juristic basis of judicial review is the doctrine of ultra vires.”
