Question
The doctrine of "Promissory Estoppel"
prevents:Solution
Promissory estoppel is an equitable doctrine that prevents the government from reneging on a clear, unambiguous promise if another person has acted in reliance on it. However, this is subject to public policy and the doctrine cannot bind the government to act ultra vires. It was established in cases like Union of India v. Prakash P. Hinduja (1971) 1 SCC 189 and applied extensively in administrative law. [Citation: Union of India v. Prakash P. Hinduja (1971) 1 SCC 189]
