Overview of Writ Petition
A writ is a formal written order issued by a court, usually the Supreme Court or a High Court, directing a lower court, public authority, or individual to act or refrain from acting in a certain way. Writ petitions help protect citizens’ rights and challenge unlawful actions or decisions. Article 32 of the Constitution empowers the Supreme Court, while Article 226 empowers the High Courts to issue writs.
