Do you think that judicial activism can lead to a conflict between the judiciary and the executive? Why?

The judicial activism can lead to a conflict between the judiciary and the executive. Judicial activism has had deep impact on the political system.

It has forced executive accountability. By the judicial activism it becomes more easy to make the electoral system much more free and fair. The courts have asked the candidates contesting elections to file affidavits indicating their assets and income along with educational qualifications.

This gives the dissatisfaction to the candidates and the judicial activism has blurred the line of distincton between the executive and legislature on the one hand and the judiciary on the other. The court has been involved in resolving issues which belong to the executive.

Reducing air or sound pollution or investigating cases of corruption or bringing about electoral reform is not exactly the duty of the judiciary. These are matters which are the duties of administration and hence sometimes judicial activism can lead to a conflict between the judiciary and the executive.
