The legislature, which in India is the Parliament with its two houses — the directly elected Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha — makes and changes the laws of the country, controls the government and decides on key matters like taxes and budgets. The executive carries out these laws and runs the day-to-day administration; it has a political part, made up of the Prime Minister and the Council of Ministers who take major decisions, and a permanent part, made up of civil servants who implement them. The judiciary is the system of courts, headed by the Supreme Court, which interprets and applies the law, settles disputes and protects citizens' rights. These three organs share power and work together, while the judiciary's independence helps ensure that laws and actions follow the Constitution.
