Refers to the Supreme Court and High Courts’ authority to review legislative or executive actions for constitutional compliance. If a law or action contravenes constitutional provisions, courts can invalidate it. Rooted in the principle of rule of law, judicial review ensures checks and balances, preventing arbitrary use of power. It covers the constitutionality of central and state laws, executive orders, and fundamental rights violations. Although not explicitly mentioned, Articles 13, 32, and 226 grant implied powers for review. This mechanism maintains the supremacy of the Constitution and protects democratic values by limiting legislative overreach.
