Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer A

Items I, III, and IV fall under the exclusive original jurisdiction of the Supreme Court: Article 131 gives the Supreme Court exclusive original jurisdiction over disputes between the Government of India and one or more States or between States (I), and Article 71(1) vests exclusive authority in the Supreme Court to inquire into and decide all doubts and disputes arising out of or in connection with the election of the President or Vice-President (III and IV). By contrast, original writ jurisdiction for the enforcement of Fundamental Rights (II) under Article 32 is concurrent with that of the High Courts under Article 226, not exclusive.
