Parliamentary democracy evolved as a check against the power of the Crown, and it consists of two houses: The House of Commons and the House of Lords.
The House of Commons was an elected body that had to authorize laws that the King, as head of the House of Lords, wanted to implement.
After England's civil war, power tipped to the side of the House of Commons, such that now it is the House of Lords who are the auditors who are supposed to watch out for the Commons passing unwise laws.
In former-commonwealth countries spun off from British occupation, the head of the House of Lords, previously a king, has been replaced with someone called a Governor General.

Will you elaborate on the, what English common law is practiced in Bangladesh?
Bangladesh inherited the provincial government under which first the Dominion, then Republic, of Pakistan was governed, a parliamentary system based on the Westminster model with a unicameral legislature. Following this model, the constitution of December 1972 established a unitary, democratic republic, with an indirectly elected president as nominal head of state and a prime minister as head of government and chief executive. The prime minister and his government are responsible to a unicameral legislature—the National Assembly—elected no less frequently than every five years and composed of 300 members.
