The concept of 'Judicial Review' in the Indian Constitution has been adopted from the Constitution of the United States. Judicial review is the power of the courts to examine the Actions of the legislative, executive and administrative arms of the Government and to determine whether such Actions are consistent with the Constitution. Actions judged inconsistent are declared unconstitutional and therefore null and void.

The system of Judicial Review exists in both india and the U.S.A.

The characteristic of "Federal Court for Interpretation of Constitution" is common in both Indian and American federal systems. While in the United States there is one Judicial system at the Union level and an other at the State level. There is the absence of three lists in the constitution of the USA. The Indian Constitution provides single citizenship, whereas the U.S. Constitution provides dual citizenship.

The Constitution of India is federal in nature. The concept of a Federal System in our Constitution is inspired from the Constitution of Canada.

The inclusion of Directive Principles of State Policy in the Indian Constitution is inspired by the Directive Principles given in the Constitution of Ireland.

The framers of the Constitution took inspiration, for a number of its aspects, from other international Constitutions.

The essential rights that everyone is entitled to in order to live with honor and integrity are known as fundamental rights. Part III of the Indian Constitution contains the Fundamental Rights.

The Judiciary has the upper hand in interpreting the Constitution. Thus, if an order issued by the legislature or the executive branch of government conflicts with the nation's Constitution, the Judiciary has the authority to overturn it.
