Summary
In all of the societies, administrative system is seen as a functional and administrative aspect of the government, and is the way of communication between the government and people. The philosophy behind the existence of the administrative system in every society is to enable a government to perform its duties for people in different political, economic, social and other areas and for the general purposes of the government. If the administrative system loses its efficiency or gets corrupted for any reason, it can be expected that the system becomes one of the fundamental holes in the government, resulting in a disruption in the relationships between government and society. This will lead to disastrous consequences for political and social stability
