Answer 1

Q and R

Explanation:

Statements Q (issuing writs to enforce Fundamental Rights under Article 32) and R (acting as the final interpreter to give verdicts on the Constitution) are core constitutional functions of the apex court. In contrast, Statement P is incorrect because inter-governmental disputes must involve States or the Union under Article 131, not internal ministerial friction. Statement S is false because the court advises the President of India under Article 143, not the Prime Minister.
