    Solution

    Lok Adalat is considered to be one of the alternative dispute redressal mechanisms and a forum where disputes pending in the court of law or at pre-litigation stage are settled or compromised. Legal Services Authorities Act, 1987 gives statutory status to the Lok Adalatā€™s. Award made by the Lok Adalatā€™s 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.
