Constitutional law is the supreme law of the land, safeguarding citizens' fundamental rights and defining the limits of state power in Nepal. Administrative law controls the operations and decision-making processes of government ministries, regulatory departments, and local authorities. Our legal team represents clients seeking to challenge arbitrary, biased, or illegal actions taken by public bodies.
We represent clients at the High Courts and the Supreme Court of Nepal in filing writ petitions — including Mandamus, Certiorari, Habeas Corpus, Prohibition, and Quo Warranto — to enforce constitutional guarantees or set aside unlawful government directives.
Additionally, we advise businesses, NGOs, and individuals on regulatory compliance, administrative appeals before government tribunals, and public interest litigation (PIL) aimed at resolving systemic issues in Nepal's administration.

Constitutional & Administrative FAQs
A writ petition is an extraordinary remedy filed directly in the High Court or Supreme Court when a citizen's fundamental rights are violated, or when an administrative body acts beyond its legal authority. Writs include Habeas Corpus (for illegal detention), Certiorari (to quash illegal orders), and Mandamus (to force action).
Yes, citizens and registered entities can challenge decisions made by government ministries, departments, and public officials through judicial review or writ petitions. If the court finds the decision was arbitrary, biased, or violated the law, it can declare the decision null and void.
Public Interest Litigation (PIL) is a lawsuit filed in the Supreme Court by a public-spirited individual or organisation on behalf of the public or a disadvantaged group. PILs generally address issues like environmental protection, corruption, public health, human rights, and public safety.
The limitation period to challenge a government decision varies based on the specific act under which the decision was made. Under general writ jurisdiction, petitions should be filed without delay, typically within 35 days to 3 months of the contested decision. Prompt filing is critical to avoid rejection on grounds of laches (unreasonable delay).
