Explanation:
- Separation of powers is a doctrine of constitutional law under which the three branches of government (executive, legislative, and judicial) are kept separate.
- This is also known as the system of checks and balances, because each branch is given certain powers so as to check and balance the other branches.
- Example : tripartite system found in the United States and the United Kingdom, in which there are three individual branches of government: the executive branch, the legislative branch, and the judicial branch.
- No one branch or institution can become so powerful as to control the system completely.
- The separation of powers is important because it provides a vital system of 'checks and balances'
