Constitutional challenges and writ petitions against state action before the High Courts and the Supreme Court.
A writ petition is the citizen's direct remedy against the state. It is the fastest route to relief where an authority has acted without power, without a hearing, or without reasons — and the slowest possible route where a disputed question of fact needed a suit instead.
We act in petitions under Article 226 before the High Courts and Article 32 before the Supreme Court: challenges to statutes and subordinate legislation, to licensing, tender and blacklisting decisions, to disciplinary and service action, and to orders passed without jurisdiction or in breach of natural justice.
The threshold work is jurisdictional. Whether an alternative remedy bars the petition, whether the writ lies against the body at all, and whether delay defeats it are all decided before the merits are reached — so that is where we start.
