Abstract	The judiciary, as a vital branch of government, plays a crucial role in interpreting the law and has the authority to invalidate any law that contradicts the Constitution. Judicial review empowers the Supreme Court and High Courts to assess whether laws and government actions align with the Constitution. If a law is deemed unconstitutional, it is rendered void and unenforceable. This power enables the judiciary to hold the executive and legislative branches accountable, ensuring their actions conform to constitutional principles. Judicial review is an essential component of the Basic Structure Doctrine, acting as a safeguard against potential abuses of power by other branches of government. Often referred to as constitutional review, judicial review has a profound effect on how constitutional provisions are interpreted. This paper seeks to explore the significance of judicial review in shaping constitutional law and interpretation, offering a comprehensive analysis of its role in upholding constitutional governance.
