Detailed explanation-1: -With his decision in Marbury v. Madison, Chief Justice John Marshall established the principle of judicial review, an important addition to the system of “checks and balances” created to prevent any one branch of the Federal Government from becoming too powerful.
Detailed explanation-2: -Madison and Marshall were both Founding Fathers from Virginia and both owned estates that used slave labor. Madison and Marshall both were major forces at the Constitutional Convention of 1787 and were on good terms with George Washington.
Detailed explanation-3: -In the United States, judicial review is the legal power of a court to determine if a statute, treaty, or administrative regulation contradicts or violates the provisions of existing law, a State Constitution, or ultimately the United States Constitution.
Detailed explanation-4: -Even though the term judicial review is nowhere mentioned in the Indian Constitution, the written constitution implicitly gives the Indian Judiciary the power of judicial review.
