Which writ is issued by a High Court to instruct a person, acting within its territorial jurisdiction in matters related to the Federation, a Province, or a local authority, to stop performing an act that is not legally authorized?

Explanation

The writ of Prohibition is issued by the High Court to prevent a person from carrying out actions beyond their legal authority within its jurisdiction. Mandamus commands a public official to perform a duty, Quo-Warranto challenges a person's right to hold a public office, and 'None of the above' is incorrect in this context.
