(Old Edition) Lok Prashasan for UPSC (Hindi), 2E

Product Overview & Details

This book is essentially a complete introductory-to-advanced reference on Public Administration, particularly useful for candidates preparing for UPSC Public Administration Optional and for students wanting a structured understanding of administrative theory and Indian administration.

The book is divided into two broad parts:

1. Administrative Theory
2. Indian Administration

This two-part structure is one of its main strengths because it first explains general theories and principles of administration and then applies the subject to the Indian administrative system. 

Part I — Administrative Theory

This section establishes the conceptual foundation of Public Administration.

It covers:

• Introduction to Public Administration
• Basic concepts and principles
• Meaning, nature and scope of administration
• Theories of administration
• Administrative behaviour
• Accountability and control
• Administrative systems
• Personnel administration
• Financial administration

The theory section is particularly important for understanding concepts that repeatedly appear in Public Administration Optional Paper I.
