Judiciary Gaurdian of Constitution of India
⚖️ The Guardian of the Constitution 🇮🇳
In India, the Supreme Court isn’t just a court—it’s the shield of our democracy. From protecting Fundamental Rights under Article 32 to ensuring no law violates the Basic Structure, the judiciary keeps the spirit of our Constitution alive.
- Final Interpreter: The Supreme Court is the ultimate authority for explaining constitutional nuances.
- Article 13: Grants the power of Judicial Review; laws inconsistent with the Constitution are declared void.
- Article 32 (The Heart & Soul): Provides the right to constitutional remedies. Dr. B.R. Ambedkar called this the most important article because it makes rights “real” through Writ Jurisdiction.
- Federal Arbiter: Settles disputes between the Union and States to preserve the federal structure.
- Basic Structure Doctrine: Established in the Kesavananda Bharati Case (1973) to prevent Parliament from misusing its amending power.
- Independence: Ensured by Article 50 (Separation from Executive) and fixed tenure/salaries.
