Separation Of Power: Mischief Or Solemnity In Modern Times





Aiswarya Sahu & Taranjeet Singh, KIIT School of Law


ABSTRACT


The structure, silhouette and shape given by the democracy strictly emphasis on supremacy of separation as well as decentralization of powers. Each wing of the government, whether legislature, judiciary or executive, must be kept separate as well as internally checked. Though the constitution of India exclusively provides separation of power to be a part of basic structure but when it comes to the practical scenario, it is not that rigidly practiced in India. The three wings of the government in some of the other way performs the task of others whether it is judicial interpretation or quasi-legislative actions. The present research paper interpreted the doctrine of separation of power as ideate by the Indian constitution and need for such doctrine in the modern times and how it bars the administrative law. The writer also draws descriptive analysis of the three models of the doctrine of separation of power.


Keywords: Constitution, Doctrine, Executive, Judiciary, Legislative, Power, Separation, Quasi-Legislative.
