Explanation:

A writ is a legal order given by a court of law. The Supreme Court of India can issue the writs of habeas corpus, mandamus, prohibition, certiorari and quo-warranto under Article 32 of the Indian Constitution.

• Article 226 of the Constitution empowers a high court to issue writs for the enforcement of the fundamental rights of the citizens and for any other purpose.

The writs include –

• Habeas Corpus - to direct the release of a person detained unlawfully.
• Mandamus - to direct a public authority to do its duty.
• Quo Warranto - to direct a person to vacate an office assumed wrongfully.
• Prohibition - to prohibit a lower court from proceeding on a case.
• Certiorari - power of the higher court to remove a proceeding from a lower court and bring it before itself.

Hence option 3rd is correct.
