The 'checks and balances' system is another name for horizontal division of power, i.e. power is transmitted among diverse organs - legislature, executive, and judiciary. All these organs have their separate power and areas of jurisdiction-
1)      Legislature- Legislate laws
2)      Executive- Execute the laws made by the legislature.
3)      Judiciary- ensures that laws are constitutionally valid and deliver justice to people.
All these organs work in their areas, keep watch on others and ensure balance.
