Under which article of Indian Constitution The Supreme Court shall have power to issue directions or orders or writs, including writs in the nature of habeas corpus, mandamus, prohibition, quo warranto and certiorari.
Answer: C
The Supreme Court's power to issue directions, orders or writs, including habeas corpus, mandamus, prohibition, quo warranto and certiorari, is conferred by Article 32 of the Constitution. Article 32 is itself a Fundamental Right, the right to move the Supreme Court for the enforcement of the rights in Part III, which is why the writ list in the question matches its wording.
Article 115 deals with supplementary, additional or excess grants in the Union budget, Article 72 is the President's power to grant pardons, and Article 65 provides for the Vice-President acting as or discharging the functions of the President. None of these concerns writs.
