How does judicial review control the power of the government?

Correct answer: By checking government laws and actions on the basis of the Constitution

Direct answer: A is correct. Judicial review is the authority of courts to examine whether a law, order or government action is consistent with the Constitution and applicable law. The reasoning proceeds in steps: identify the official action, compare it with constitutional requirements, and provide a legal remedy if it conflicts with them. Depending on the case and legal framework, a court may declare an invalid measure unenforceable or direct authorities to follow the law. A is correct because it states this constitutional checking process. B is the opposite of judicial review; review limits unlawful power rather than granting unlimited power. C is wrong because Parliament makes laws and courts decide cases; their roles are different. D is unrelated to judicial review. Memory cue: review means “constitutional check on public power.”
