ABSTRACT:

Judiciary places a key role in deciding the disputes between the citizens and a state. Administrative action is a residuary which is neither legislative nor judicial. Judicial review of administrative action serves as a vital mechanism for ensuring accountability and legality. It allows courts to evaluate whether these agencies have acted within their statutory authority. The outcomes of judicial review can lead to the annulment of agency decisions, remand for reconsideration, or injunctions against unlawful actions. Overall, judicial review is essential for maintaining the rule of law and protecting individual rights.

Keywords: Administrative action, unlawful actions, judicial review, individual rights.
