Q » What is the system of checks and balances designed to prevent?
29 Oct, 2025
A » The system of checks and balances is designed to prevent any single branch of government—executive, legislative, or judicial—from gaining excessive power. By ensuring that each branch has separate and distinct responsibilities, and the ability to limit the powers of the others, this system maintains a balance of power, safeguarding democratic principles and preventing potential tyranny or abuse of power within the government. This mechanism upholds the rule of law and accountability.
