Which of the following jurisdictions of the Supreme Court allows it to settle disputes between the centre and state and amongst states?
           

Correct option is D

The Original jurisdiction of the Supreme Court allows it to settle disputes between the centre and state and amongst states.
 The original jurisdiction of the Supreme Court is exclusive, which means that no other court can hear these types of cases. The Supreme Court can hear cases between the Government of India and one or more States, or between two or more States, if and insofar as the dispute involves any question (whether of law or of fact) on which the existence or extent of a legal right depends.
These jurisdictions are enjoyed by a High Court-
 Original jurisdiction
 Writ jurisdiction
 Appellate jurisdiction
 Supervisory jurisdiction
 Control over subordinate courts
 A court of record
 Power of judicial review
Article 226 of the Constitution empowers a high court to issue writs including habeas corpus, mandamus, certiorari, prohibition, and quo warrento for the enforcement of the fundamental rights of the citizens and for any other purpose.
