Question:

Which of the following is NOT correct about the jurisdiction of the High Court?

Options:

It controls the subordinate courts within its jurisdiction.

It has the power of judicial review.

It provides advisory opinion to the President of India.

It has writ jurisdiction.

Correct Answer:

It provides advisory opinion to the President of India.

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option 3 - It provides advisory opinion to the President of India.

High Courts do not provide advisory opinions to the President of India. They primarily exercise jurisdiction over matters related to their territorial jurisdiction, including appellate jurisdiction over subordinate courts, writ jurisdiction to enforce fundamental rights, and the power of judicial review. Advisory opinions are typically provided by the Supreme Court of India or other specialized bodies, but not by High Courts.
