The law-making process in India has been primarily influenced by the British Constitution because:
- India's Parliamentary system of government (Lok Sabha & Rajya Sabha) follows the Westminster model of the UK.
- The bicameral legislature, the concept of Rule of Law, and parliamentary sovereignty are derived from the British system.
- The procedure for making laws, including debates, committee reviews, and assent by the President, is inspired by the British parliamentary process.
Thus, the British Constitution played a crucial role in shaping India's legislative system.
