Answer: (d)

The power of the Supreme Court of India to decide disputes between the centre and the states falls under its original jurisdiction. The original jurisdiction of a court is the power to hear a case for the first time, as opposed to appellate jurisdiction when a court has the power to review a lower court’s decision.

Advisory jurisdiction mentioned under article 143. Appellate jurisdiction comes under article 132. It is the power of a higher court to review decisions and change outcomes of decisions of the lower court. In constitutional jurisdiction, the power and authority conferred upon a court or judge to pronounce the sentence of the law, provided by law upon a state of facts.

The fountain source of law in India is the Constitution which, in turn, gives due recognition to statutes, case law and customary law consistent with its dispensations. Statutes are enacted by Parliament, State Legislatures and Union Territory Legislatures.

There is also a vast body of laws known as subordinate legislation in the form of rules, regulations as well as by-laws made by Central and State Governments and local authorities like Municipal Corporations, Municipalities, Gram Panchayats and other local bodies.

This subordinate legislation is made under the authority conferred or delegated either by Parliament or State or Union Territory Legislature concerned.

The decisions of the Supreme Court are binding on all courts within the territory of India.
