    The expression 'Rule of Law' has been derived from the French phrase 'la principle de legalite', i.e., a Government based on the principles of law. It is implied by the State in the administration of justice. The basis of Administrative Law is the 'Doctrine of the Rule of Law'. It was expounded for the first time by Sri Edward Coke, and was developed by Prof. A.V.Dicey in his book 'The law of the Constitution' published in 1885.
