Book: Indian Polity by M. Laxmikanth
Lok Adalats, functioning under the Legal Services Authorities Act, settle disputes amicably, especially minor civil or compoundable criminal cases. They emphasize quick, cost-effective resolutions free from formal court procedures. Parties consent to abide by the compromise. Additionally, mediation, conciliation, and arbitration are widely recognized ADR mechanisms. These complement formal courts, reducing pendency and promoting harmonious solutions. Lok Adalat decisions are final and binding, with no appeal except on procedural grounds. They reflect Gandhian ideals of conflict resolution, bridging the accessibility gap for economically weaker sections. Their success depends on publicity, willingness of parties to compromise, and institutional support for spreading ADR awareness.
