Q: Why is the independence of Judiciary necessary?
Answer It ensures that justice is delivered without pressure from the executive or legislature, protects fundamental rights, maintains the rule of law, and acts as an impartial arbiter in constitutional disputes.

- Focus on Constitutional Articles: Memorize essential articles (e.g., Articles 12–35 for Fundamental Rights, Article 324 for ECI, Article 368 for Amendments).
- Understand Core Theories: Re-visit John Rawls' Theory of Distributive Justice, Positive vs. Negative Liberty, and Economic vs. Political Liberty.
