What is Lok Adalat

Lok Adalat, also known as the ‘People’s Court’ is one of the alternative dispute redressal mechanisms. According to the National Legal Service Authority, it is a forum where disputes/cases pending in the court of law or at pre-litigation stage are settled or compromised amicably. Lok Adalats have been given statutory status under the Legal Services Authorities Act, 1987. Under the said Act, the award (decision) made by the Lok Adalats is deemed to be a decree of a civil court and is final and binding on all parties and no appeal against such an award lies before any court of law.
