What is Landmark Judgement on Colourable Legislation about?

The doctrine of colourable legislation prevents legislative bodies from enacting laws that appear legitimate but exceed their constitutional authority. Originating from a Latin maxim, this principle ensures that legislative actions conform to constitutional boundaries, with the judiciary playing a key role in reviewing such laws. Landmark Supreme Court cases in India have shaped its application, highlighting the importance of maintaining the separation of powers and federalism in governance.
