Parliament in India is not Supreme …

Parliament is a legislative body which performs the function of deliberation and law making. Constitution on the other hand is the magna carta, Constitution enshrines the rights of individuals, it encodes the procedure of operation of business in the Houses of Parliament and is the fundamental law of the land.

The Parliament has rights to make laws but they can’t violate the constitution in doing so. The constitution acts as guide to the executive, legislature and judiciary. Constitution being the framework of our democratic system of existence is non violable. Constitution is the charter of the aspirations and ideals of people which is fundamental to the our democratic government. Constitution provides for the cautious separation of power among the various pillars of government viz. executive, legislature and Judiciary to implement the system of checks and balances so that none of them violate other’s sphere of existence and thus making the government stable and long lasting.
