Explanation: The Indian Constitution has established an integrated judicial system with the Supreme Court at the top and the high courts below it.

  • Under a high court (and below the state level), there is a hierarchy of subordinate courts, that is, district courts and other lower courts.
  • This single system of courts, adopted from the Government of India Act of 1935, enforces both Central laws as well as the state laws.
