Writs are the remedial architecture of the Indian Constitution. This volume is a practitioner's map of that architecture — Articles 32 and 136 before the Supreme Court; Articles 226 and 227 before the High Courts — read as a connected whole. Chapters survey the writ remedies in service, administrative, criminal, public-interest, and election-law matters, with sustained attention to the self-imposed restraints of the writ courts.
