An injunction, as an ordinary or equitable remedy against administrative action, may take various forms. Which combination correctly describes the categories of injunctions discussed in the ICSI material?

Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D.
1. Injunction is a **preventive remedy** — a judicial process by which one who has invaded or is threatening to invade the rights of another is restrained. 2. The ICSI text identifies **Prohibitory** injunctions and **Mandatory** injunctions as the two main categories. 3. **Prohibitory** injunction further splits into **(1) Interlocutory or temporary injunction** (Section 37 Specific Relief Act, 1963) — granted as an interim measure to preserve *status quo* — and **(2) Perpetual injunction** — granted at the conclusion of the proceedings and definitive of the rights of the parties. 4. **Mandatory** injunction compels performance of certain acts to undo what has been wrongly done — restoring things to their former condition. _Source: ICSI CS Executive — Lesson 5, 'Injunction', pp. 123-124._
