Judicial Review in the Indian Constitution has been taken from the United States of America (USA). Judicial Review refers to the power of the judiciary to review and invalidate laws or actions that are deemed unconstitutional. This power allows the judiciary to ensure that the government and other branches of power function within the limits set by the constitution. The concept of Judicial Review was introduced in India through the influence of the USA`s Constitution. It was adopted to maintain a balance of power and to protect the fundamental rights of individuals. Therefore, option 2, USA, is the correct answer.
