Powers and functions of supreme court in india

Answer 1

Hi.

The powers and functions of the supreme court in India are-----
1---Advisory jurisdiction----

Article 143 (Power of President to consult Supreme Court) discusses the advisory jurisdiction of the Supreme Court.

If the president feels that a question of law or fact has arisen or is likely to arise and the question is of such a nature and of such public importance that it is expedient to obtain the opinion of the Supreme Court upon it, he can refer the same to Supreme Court for its advisory Opinion.
Such an opinion is NOT binding on the president.
2---Writs jurisdiction----
 It issues writs in the nature of habeas corpus, mandamus, prohibition, certiorari and quo-warranto in enforcement of fundamental rights granted in chapter III of the constitution. However, this jurisdiction is not exclusive. High Court also enjoys this jurisdiction.
3---Original Jurisdiction---
As per article 32, Supreme Court is the guardian / protector of fundamental rights and any person whose fundamental rights are violated can directly approach the Supreme Court for remedy. Supreme Court has from time to time interpreted the fundamental rights and has protected the Citizens of India from any unconstitutional legislation which breech their fundamental rights.
4---Appellate Jurisdiction---

Supreme Court is the Highest Court of appeal and the writs and decrees of Supreme Court run throughout the country. The cases come to the Supreme Court in the form of appeals against the judgments of the lower courts and this is called appellate jurisdiction. Appellate jurisdiction involves the Constitution, Civil and criminal matters.
