• Brevity:
The constitution should not be lengthy.
It should contain only important things
and unimportant things should be left
out.
• Comprehensiveness:
It means that the constitution should
be applicable to the whole country or
besides the central government, there
should be mention of the structure
and powers of state or provincial
governments. Mention should also be
made about the important matters
relating to the rights and duties of the
government and the citizens.
• Flexibility:
The constitution should not be too rigid
to hinder the process of amendment
when needed.
• Declaration of rights:
A good constitution must contain the
fundamental rights of the people. In the
constitutions of countries like India,
Soviet Union, China, France, America,
Japan and Italy such types of
declarations have been made.
• Independence of Judiciary:
Independence of Judiciary is
another quality of a good
constitution. The judiciary
should not be under the control
of the executive and it should
function freely and act as the
guardian of the Fundamental
Rights of the people without
favour or fear.
• Directive Principles of State Policy:
In a good constitution mention must be
made of the Directive Principles of
State Policy, because it helps in the
establishment of a welfare state. These
principles also serve as a beacon for the
government . Through these principles
have been mentioned in a few
constitutions of the world, yet it is
useful and not harmful to mention
them.
