Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -State courts are courts of “general jurisdiction". They hear all the cases not specifically selected for federal courts. Just as the federal courts interpret federal laws, state courts interpret state laws. Each state gets to make and interpret its own laws.

Detailed explanation-2: -This type of jurisdiction is called “original jurisdiction.” Sometimes, the jurisdiction of state courts will overlap with that of federal courts, meaning that some cases can be brought in both courts. The plaintiff has the initial choice of bringing the case in state or federal court.

Detailed explanation-3: -The High Courts of Mumbai and Guwahati have jurisdictions over more than two states. The Guwahati High Court extends its jurisdiction to states of Assam, Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, and Mizoram. The Mumbai High Court extends its jurisdiction to Maharashtra, Goa, Dadra and Nagar Haveli, Daman and Diu.
