Explanation

Writs are constitutional remedies issued by the Supreme Court under Article 32 (for enforcement of Fundamental Rights) and by High Courts under Article 226 (for enforcement of any legal right). Both courts have concurrent jurisdiction to issue five types of writs: Habeas Corpus, Mandamus, Prohibition, Certiorari, and Quo Warranto. This dual jurisdiction ensures widespread access to constitutional remedies across the country.
