Which of the following can be issued by the Supreme Court for the enforcement of Fundamental Rights ?
Writs
Article 32 of the Constitution gives every person the right to move the Supreme Court directly for the enforcement of Fundamental Rights; Dr. B. R. Ambedkar called it the heart and soul of the Constitution.
Under Article 32(2), the Supreme Court can issue directions, orders or writs in the nature of habeas corpus, mandamus, prohibition, quo warranto and certiorari. High Courts have a similar, wider power under Article 226.
Ordinances are issued by the President (Article 123) or a Governor (Article 213) when the legislature is not in session; proclamations, such as those of emergency, are issued by the President; regulations are framed by the executive or statutory bodies. None of these is a judicial remedy for enforcing Fundamental Rights, so “None of the above” is also ruled out.
Writs option is correct.
