Doctrine of legitimate expectation and Wednesbury principles were read by Supreme Court into
Detailed Solution for Uttar Pradesh Judicial Services Prelims Paper 2 Mock Test - 1 (Law) - Question 27
The doctrine of 'Legitimate Expectations' is one among several tools incorporated by the Court to review administrative action. This doctrine pertains to the relationship between an individual and a public authority. According to this doctrine, the public authority can be made accountable in lieu of a 'legitimate expectation'. A person may have a reasonable or legitimate expectation of being treated in a certain way by the administrative authorities owing to some consistent practice in the past or an express promise made by the concerned authority. The doctrine's use has essentially been embedded into Article 14 of the Constitution and thus 'non-arbitrariness and unreasonableness' have been made the necessary qualifiers for assessing as to whether there was a denial of legitimate expectation or not. However when an administrative action is questioned as arbitrary the principle of secondary review based on Wednesbury principle applies.
