Question

A writ which is the form of a command is

• A. Quo Warranto
• B. Prohibition
• C. Mandamus
• D. Certiorari

Hint:

*Mandamus* ensures public officials act lawfully, compelling performance of mandatory duties.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is C

*Mandamus* is a writ in the form of a command, directing a public authority to perform a legal duty, as per Article 32 or 226. Other writs serve different purposes: *Quo Warranto* questions authority, *Prohibition* prevents overreach, and *Certiorari* corrects errors. Thus, the correct answer is: \[ {\text{Mandamus}} \]
