Answer:

A High Court or the Supreme Court  act as  as the guardian of fundamental rights because it can get any of the fundamental rights restored in case of

their violation by issuing special orders called writs:-

1. Habeas corpus: A writ of habeas corpus means  that the court orders that the arrested person  should be presented before it. It can also order to  set free an arrested person if the manner or  grounds of arrest are not lawful or satisfactory.

2. Mandamus: This writ is issued when the court  finds that a particular office holder is not doing  legal duty and thereby is infringing on the right of  an individual.

3. Prohibition: This writ is issued by a higher court  (High Court or Supreme Court) when a lower court  has considered a case going beyond its jurisdiction.

4. Quo Warranto: If the court finds that a person is  holding office but is not entitled to hold that office,  it issues the writ of quo warranto and restricts that  person from acting as an office holder.

5. Certiorari: Under this writ, the court orders a  lower court or another authority to transfer a  matter pending before it to the higher authority or  court
