Writ petitions

A writ petition is a formal request made to a court, asking it to take action when a person's fundamental rights are violated or there is a legal injustice. It is a legal tool used to seek immediate relief or correction of government or organizational wrongdoings. Writs are issued by higher courts, such as the Supreme Court or High Courts, and serve as a safeguard to ensure the law and constitutional rights are upheld. Essentially, it is a way for individuals or entities to seek justice when other remedies are insufficient.
