Doctrine of Separation of Powers

The Doctrine of Separation of Powers is a fundamental principle that divides the functions of government into three branches: Legislative, Executive, and Judicial. Each branch has distinct responsibilities—making laws, enforcing laws, and interpreting laws—to prevent any one branch from gaining too much power. This separation ensures a system of checks and balances, promoting fairness and protecting individual freedoms by maintaining accountability and preventing abuse of authority within the government.
