Consider the following statements regarding the writ jurisdiction of the Supreme Court and High Courts: 1. The Supreme Court can issue writs only for the enforcement of Fundamental Rights under Article 32. 2. High Courts possess a wider writ jurisdiction than the Supreme Court because they can issue writs for any other purpose besides fundamental rights under Article 226.

💡 Solution & Explanation

Both statements are correct. Under Article 32, the Supreme Court's writ jurisdiction is restricted solely to the enforcement of Fundamental Rights, making it a fundamental right itself. Conversely, under Article 226, High Courts can issue writs not only for enforcing Fundamental Rights but also for any other ordinary legal purpose, giving them a broader territorial and substantive scope in writ matters.
