Mandamus Writ Petition: Meaning, When Issued, and Format

Mandamus Writ Petition: Meaning, When Issued, and Format

A mandamus writ petition asks a High Court or the Supreme Court to order a public authority to do something the law already requires it to do. "Mandamus" is Latin for "we command".

In India you file this kind of writ petition under Article 226 of the Constitution in a High Court, or under Article 32 in the Supreme Court when a fundamental right is violated.

Format of Anticipatory Bail: How to Draft It Under BNSS

The format of anticipatory bail application is simple. It has a court heading and cause title, the applicant's details, numbered facts, grounds, undertakings, a prayer, the advocate's signature, and a verification or affidavit.
