When I have logged in the backend administration section of joomla its showing as such why is it so??
I am totally confused seeing this...
Is this any error
or Any plugin issue...
The site has been Upgraded from 1.7 to 2.5 a month ago.. But then also any hint of such a problem was not seen....

A friend of mine had this issue and I helped him narrow it down.
This problem is caused by fiddling with _viewlevels table in your joomla database. Some plugins/extensions could possibly make such changes as well.
In Joomla Content is classified by who can view/access it. There are three levels of Content Access Classification:
Administrator belongs to Special. Giving Special all permissions solves thee problem. For some reason, Special class no longer had the ability to access menus of administrator panel in your application.
Edit the Special entry in viewlevels table so it looks like this:
id title ordering rules
|-------------|----------------|-------------|----------------|
| 3 | Special | 2 |[1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8]|
|-------------|----------------|-------------|----------------|
