What is Constitution?
A constitution is a set of fundamental principles or established precedents according to which a state or organization is governed. It often outlines the structure of government, the rights and duties of citizens, and the procedures for making decisions and enforcing laws.
What is Law?
Law is a system of rules and regulations created and enforced by governmental or social institutions to regulate behavior and ensure justice and order within a society. It encompasses various types of rules, including statutes, regulations, judicial decisions, and customary practices, which govern interactions between individuals and institutions.

Difference between Constitution and law?
The key difference between a constitution and law lies in their scope and purpose.
A constitution serves as the foundational legal document of a country or organization, establishing its fundamental principles, structure of government, and the rights and duties of citizens. It often outlines the framework within which laws are created and enforced.
Laws, on the other hand, are specific rules and regulations established by governmental or social institutions to regulate behavior within a society. They are derived from the authority granted by the constitution and cover a wide range of topics, including criminal, civil, administrative, and procedural matters.
In summary, while a constitution sets out the fundamental principles and structure of governance, laws are the specific rules and regulations enacted within that framework to govern conduct and resolve disputes.
