Why is the writ power of High Courts considered broad?

Correct answer: Because under Article 226 they can issue writs for legal rights besides Fundamental Rights

The governing concept is the writ jurisdiction of High Courts under Article 226 of the Constitution. A High Court may issue directions, orders, or writs not only for enforcing Fundamental Rights but also for protecting other legal rights. This makes Article 226 wider in scope than Article 32, which is principally concerned with Fundamental Rights before the Supreme Court. Therefore, option A is correct. Options B and D describe unrelated functions, while option C reverses the constitutional position because High Courts can issue writs such as habeas corpus, mandamus, prohibition, certiorari, and quo warranto within their jurisdiction.
