Detailed Solution

Power sharing between different organs of the government is an example of horizontal sharing of power.
In India, the power is horizontally distributed among the legislature, executive, and judiciary. They are placed at an equal level but exercise different powers. This system is also known as a check and balance system. The legislature makes laws for the country; the executive implements these laws, and the judiciary helps to settle disputes. The ministers and government officials are responsible to the Parliament. Judiciary checks the functioning of the legislature and the executive. Each organ of the government checks on other organs and ensures that no organ enjoys unlimited powers. This horizontal division results in a balance of power among various institutions.
