What is one important function of the Supreme Court?

Correct answer: संविधान की व्याख्या और रक्षा करना

Direct answer: A is correct. The Supreme Court is the highest court and has an important role in interpreting the Constitution. When a constitutional question arises, the Court explains the meaning of constitutional provisions and checks whether laws or government actions are consistent with them, within its jurisdiction. This is why it is often described in school civics as a guardian of the Constitution. A is correct because constitutional interpretation and protection are central judicial functions. B is wrong because courts do not contest elections. C is wrong because campaigning for ministers is a political activity and would conflict with judicial impartiality. D is wrong because printing a budget is not the Court’s function. Memory cue: Supreme Court means highest court and constitutional guardian, not a political office.
