A. 1 only
B. 2 only
C. Both 1 and 2✓ Correct Answer
D. Neither 1 nor 2

💡 Solution & Explanation

Both statements are correct because Arunachal Pradesh falls under the judicial territory of the Gauhati High Court through its Itanagar permanent bench, and the Supreme Court of India exercises ultimate appellate jurisdiction over all High Court rulings nationwide under Article 136. Litigants can appeal high court decisions to the apex court subject to constitutional parameters. The judicial hierarchy maintains uniform standards across states.
