This article gives an overview of how the separation of powers came as a theory of checks and balance and now it has overturned as the checks without balance. The Author has tried to discuss the role of different organs of the government or different pillars of the Constitution in the Indian context in maintaining an equilibrium, but in today’s context where different pillars are trying to overpower the other pillars, it becomes formidable to justify whether the theory in book succeeded in its proper implementation or failed to gain its rightful dues in the practical world. The Article has tried to portray in its actual sense, why there is need of checks and balances and how it is getting eroded by excessive overreach of power.
