Overview Of Constitutional And Administrative Law In Bangladesh
The constitution deals with the most important laws regarding a state as well as its organization. It describes how the different organs of state are constituted and their powers conferred to them, and how they cooperate by describing systems of checks and balances alongside guaranteeing fundamental rights to every citizen. Lastly, as an offshoot of political science public law focuses on exercising controlling power concerning acts taken by those within authority over their constituents. These branches collectively safeguard the citizens from oppressive rule owing to abuse by the government through judicial review.
