Explanation:

Article 32 of the Constitution further gives an extensive original jurisdiction to the Supreme Court for the enforcement of fundamental rights of the citizens, through issuing directions, orders and writs (See Part I, Legal Studies Class ;I). This is popularly known as the 'Writ Jurisdiction' of the Court.

Under Article 131 of the Constitution, the Supreme Court is granted original jurisdiction. This power is exercised to adjudicate amongst disputes between Union and one or more states and between two or more states.

Apart from the listed appellate powers of the Court, the Supreme Court isalso vested with wide appellate jurisdiction over all Courts and Tribunals as provided in Article 136 of the Constitution.

 

Besides being an adjudicator and interpreter, Supreme Court also functions as an adviser. Court's advisory jurisdiction may be sought by the President under Article 143 of the Constitution. This procedure is termed as "Presidential Reference" and is recognised as the 'Advisory jurisdiction' of the Court
