The Lok-Adalat is one of techniques for the ADR instrument. There is no court charge dispensed when a matter is recorded in a Lok Adalat. The Member Secretary of State Legal Services Authority puts together the Lok Adalat occasionally for comprising the seats of the Lok Adalat. The Secretary of the High Court Legal Services Committee would address seats of the Lok Adalat, each seat involve a sitting or resigned judge of the Great Court. Motor Accident claims/ Land acquisition cases/ family disputes cases in the months of March, July and October on dates to be notified later either by SLSA concerned or NALSA; IPR matters/ Consumer matters/also other matters pending before any other quasi-judicial authority on dates to be notified later by SLSA. Lok Adalats is not only an effective means of redress but it also helps in reducing the burden on the courts in a fast and cost effective manner. The people’s courts have greatly improved and praised the legal system.
