Explanation:

The Supreme Court and the High Courts can exercise this power on two conditions — (1) whether the law or the executive action which has come under scrutiny falls within the competence of the authority that has framed it, and (2) whether it is consistent with Part III of the Constitution dealing with the Fundamental Rights.

High court can interpret constituion. But if any issue is there then it is moved to supreme court. Hence statement 2 is correct
