Answer 1

Q and R

Explanation:

Statements Q (advising state departments on law) and R (holding the power of Judicial Review) are correct functions of a High Court. Statement P is wrong because Article 215 explicitly makes the High Court a Court of Record. Statement S is also wrong because Article 226 gives the High Court extensive powers to issue writs for enforcing fundamental rights.
