The jurisdiction of the Supreme Court can vary depending on the legal framework of the particular country in question. Generally speaking:
1. **Application for a bail on a charge of wilful murder**: This usually falls within the jurisdiction of lower courts (such as trial courts) or appellate courts. The Supreme Court may get involved if there's a significant legal question or if the case is elevated due to an appeal, but typically, routine bail applications do not go directly to the Supreme Court.
2. **Challenge to passing of a new law**: This typically falls within the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court or a constitutional court, as it involves interpretation of the constitutionality of legislative acts. The Supreme Court often has the authority to review the legality of laws passed by the legislature.
In summary, the challenge to the passing of a new law is more typically within the direct jurisdiction of the Supreme Court compared to an application for bail.
