Question

define horizantal distribution of power

Answer 1

$\bold{Answer\colon}$

$Horizontal\:Division\:of\\power\colon$
It is the sharing of power among the different organs of government. The division of government into the $Executive$,$Legislature$ and the $Judiciary$ is an example of horizontal division of power. In such a power sharing arrangement, different organs of government, placed at the same level, exercise different powers. This separation of powers ensures that no organ exercises unlimited power. Each organ checks the others, thereby putting in place a system of Checks and Balances. The division of power between the Council of Ministers headed by Prime Minister, the Parliament of India and the Indian Supreme Court is an example of this kind of power sharing.
