In this article, you can read all about the relationship between the three arms of the government for the UPSC exam polity section.
Separation of Powers
In India, a separation of functions rather than of powers is followed. Unlike in the US, in India, the concept of separation of powers is not adhered to strictly. However, a system of checks and balances have been put in place in such a manner that the judiciary has the power to strike down any unconstitutional laws passed by the legislature.
Today, most of the constitutional systems do not have a strict separation of powers between the various organs in the classical sense because it is impractical. In the following sections, we will see the prevailing system in India, what the relationship between each organ is, and the constitutional provisions thereof.
Before proceeding with the relationships, let us examine in brief what the functions of each organ of the government are.
What is the Legislature?
The chief function of the legislature is to enact laws.
It is the basis for the functioning of the other two organs, the executive and the judiciary.
It is also sometimes accorded the first place among the three organs because until and unless laws are enacted, there can be no implementation and application of laws.
What is the Executive?
The executive is the organ that implements the laws enacted by the legislature and enforces the will of the state.
It is the administrative head of the government.
Ministers including the Prime/Chief Ministers and President/Governors form part of the executive.
What is the Judiciary?
The judiciary is that branch of the government that interprets the law, settles disputes and administers justice to all citizens.
The judiciary is considered the watchdog of democracy, and also the guardian of the Constitution.
It comprises of the Supreme Court, the High Courts, District and other subordinate courts.
