Writ petitions are a means for individuals or entities to seek relief from the judiciary when they believe their fundamental rights have been violated or when there's a need for urgent intervention. Writ petitions are typically filed when all other remedies have been exhausted or when there's a clear and urgent need for judicial intervention. They can be filed against government authorities, public officials, or even private entities if they're performing functions of a public nature.

Writ petitions are often favored for their ability to provide quick remedies, especially in urgent matters where fundamental rights are at stake or where there's a risk of irreparable harm.
