    Sir,
    is it necessary for the petitioner to go to the first high court under art 226 of the constitution of India or directly into the supreme court for getting writs admission on fundamental rights ???

    • As per Article 32 of the Indian Constitution, a person can directly approach the Supreme Court if their Fundamental Right is violated. But in many cases, it has been seen that the Supreme Court has directed the party to first go before the High Court(under article 226 of the Indian Constitution) and then approach them.
