Solution

The correct option is B Five
Article 32 deals with the right to constitutional remedies. It states that people can approach the higher courts to enforce their rights on grounds of their violation. The Supreme Court or the High Court can issue five different types of writs/orders to enforce the fundamental rights of Indian citizens. They are called Habeas Corpus, Mandamus, Quo-Warranto, Prohibition, and Certiorari.
