ABSTRACT
In India, individuals have the right to seek the protection of their fundamental rights by approaching the Supreme Court or the High Court through Article 32 & Article 226 of the Indian Constitution, collectively known as the right to constitutional remedies. These provisions grant both the Supreme Court and High Courts the authority to uphold fundamental rights. Additionally, lower courts also have the authority to uphold these rights. Constitutional remedies accessible to citizens are powerful directives with prompt effects. Writs are primarily deployed against the state and are issued in response to Public Interest Litigations. The right to constitutional remedies is integral to our fundamental framework and is irrevocable. Our Constitution has granted the supreme authority to issue writs to the Supreme Court and High Courts. In this paper, the author examines the extent, distinctions, and applications of Article 32 and Article 226, along with pertinent case precedents.
