Answer 1

Hint: The supreme court of India is different from the supreme court of America only in its advisory role, however, in both cases the supreme court is the guardian of the constitution of the country.

Complete answer:
Differences between the Indian Supreme court and the American Supreme Court are as follows:
(1) The supreme court of India has advisory jurisdiction but the federal court of America does not.
(2) The original jurisdiction of the American Supreme court covers not only federal cases but also cases related to naval forces, maritime and air activities, etc. On the other hand, the original jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of India covers only federal cases.
(3) The jurisdictions and powers of the Indian Supreme court can be enlarged by the Parliament from time to time. On the other hand, the power and jurisdictions of the American Supreme Court are limited to that conferred by the constitution.
(4) Appellate jurisdiction of the supreme court of India covers constitutional, civil, and criminal cases. On the contrary, the appellate jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of America covers only constitutional cases.
Hence, the supreme court of India is different from the supreme court of America only in its advisory role.
So, the correct answer is Option B.

Note: However, it is important to remember that appellate jurisdiction of the supreme court of India covers constitutional, civil, and criminal cases. On the contrary, only the constitutional cases are covered by the appellate jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of America.
