Abstract
Judicial review serves as the cornerstone of India's constitutional framework, ensuring the supremacy of the Constitution and protecting fundamental rights. This paper examines its evolution through landmark cases like Kesavananda Bharati (1973) and contemporary applications in Aadhaar and demonetization judgments. It analyzes the constitutional provisions (Articles 13, 32, 226), critiques judicial overreach, and highlights its role in balancing democracy and rights.
