Correct Answer: Five


Solution : The correct answer is Five .

The Supreme Court and the High Courts of India, under Articles 32 and 226 , respectively, can issue writs of habeas corpus, mandamus, prohibition, certiorari, and quo warranto . Furthermore, the Parliament, under Article 32, can empower any other court to issue these writs. Dr. B. R. Ambedkar said that Article 32 is the most important. Without it, this Constitution would be a nullity. It is the very soul of the Constitution.
