What is the democratic significance of a High Court's writ power?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: It gives citizens a state-level remedy to protect rights

Correct answer: B. A writ is a formal direction issued by a court to protect legal or constitutional rights and to require public authorities to act lawfully. The High Court's writ jurisdiction gives people an important remedy closer to the state level when an authority violates rights or acts beyond its power. Option B is correct because this power makes government answerable and helps citizens obtain relief. Option A is the opposite of the truth: writ power places public authorities under law, not above it. Option C is wrong because a writ does not abolish the elected Legislative Assembly. Option D is wrong because judges do not become election officers by exercising writ jurisdiction. The remedy strengthens rule of law and access to justice. Memory cue: a writ is a court's legal command used to protect rights and control unlawful public action.
