Detailed explanation-1: -The PIL comes under the Epistolary jurisdiction because PIL is a form of judicial activism.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Supreme Court of India and the High Courts have the right to issue PILs. The concept of PILs stems from the power of judicial review. The concept of PILs has diluted the principle of locus standi, which implies that only the person/party whose rights have been infringed upon can file petitions.
Detailed explanation-3: -The power of the higher court to review the decision or change the result of the decisions made by the lower courts is called appellate jurisdiction. The Supreme Court in India is the highest court of order in the country. It can hear appeals in cases like civil cases and criminal cases.
Detailed explanation-4: -Articles 131, 133-136 and 143, respectively, of the Indian Constitution provide for the three types of jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of India. There are three forms of jurisdiction for the Supreme Court: Original, Appeal and Advisory.
