Kirchhoff's junction rule states that at any junction (node) in an electrical circuit, the sum of the currents flowing into thatjunction is equal to the sum of the currents flowing out of that junction..
its based upon the law of conservation of energy .
and the other is based upon the charge conservation .
and this law is veryhelpfull in calculating the resistance in case of complicated arrengement circuit .

Kirchoff’s junction rule or Kirchoff’s point rule or Kirchoff’s first law states that the algebraic sum of branch currents at any junction in an electric circuit is zero.It is based on law of conservation of charge .
