Doctrine of the Separation of Powers

The Doctrine of the Separation of Powers is a principle that divides government responsibilities into three branches: Legislative (makes laws), Executive (carries out laws), and Judicial (interprets laws). This division helps prevent any one branch from gaining too much power, ensuring a system of checks and balances. Each branch operates independently but cooperates with the others, promoting fairness, accountability, and protecting individual rights. The idea is to create a balanced government where power is shared and protected against abuse.
