Solution (By Examveda Team)
What are Writs? Think of writs as special orders issued by the Supreme Court or High Courts.They are used to enforce Fundamental Rights or to ensure that public authorities do their duty.
Understanding Mandamus:
* Mandamus literally means "we command."
* It's a court order that tells a public official, government agency, lower court, or corporation to perform a public or statutory duty they are legally obligated to do.
* Example: If a government officer is refusing to issue a license they are required to issue by law, the court can issue a Mandamus ordering them to do so.
Why not the other options?
* Habeas Corpus: This is used to release a person who has been illegally detained.
* Prohibition: This prevents a lower court or tribunal from exceeding its jurisdiction (stopping it from doing something it *doesn't* have the power to do).
* Certiorari: This orders a lower court to send up the record of a case for review by a higher court (like transferring a case for review).
In summary: Mandamus is the writ used when a court wants to command a public authority to perform its duty.
