Why is the Supreme Court important in matters of national importance?

Correct answer: Because its decisions and authority can apply across the country

Direct answer: A is correct. The Supreme Court is the highest court in India. Its constitutional interpretations and judgments in appropriate cases can guide courts and authorities throughout the country. It may hear important constitutional questions, protect Fundamental Rights, and decide certain disputes between the Union and states. The step-by-step idea is simple: a national issue raises a legal question; the Supreme Court examines the Constitution and law; its authoritative decision gives a common legal direction. B is wrong because the Supreme Court is not limited to village disputes; local matters normally begin in lower courts. C is wrong because running schools is an administrative responsibility, not the Supreme Court’s judicial function. D is wrong because national sports rules are not its general constitutional role. Memory cue: Supreme Court means the highest national judicial authority, not a local administration office.
