💡 Solution & Explanation
Article 32 empowers the Supreme Court to issue appropriate writs for enforcing Fundamental Rights, earning it the designation of the most vital provision for constitutional protection from Dr. B.R. Ambedkar. Alternative choices like Article 19 protect specific freedoms, while Article 226 grants parallel writ jurisdiction to the High Courts rather than the apex court. The Supreme Court can issue five distinct writs namely habeas corpus, mandamus, prohibition, certiorari, and quo-warranto.
