Gadwal: Ganta Kavitha Devi, who is the Principal Senior Civil Judge and Secretary of the District Legal Services Authority, announced that a Lok Adalat will be held soon. The purpose of this event is to provide quick and free justice to the public. She made this announcement while speaking at the Principal Senior Civil Judge cum Assistant Sessions Judge Court at KLI Campus on Thursday.
According to her, the National Lok Adalat will be organized on the 28th of this month, following the instructions of the National Legal Services Authority. In a Lok Adalat, cases are resolved through a compromise between both parties. These cases may include legal disputes, loans, land issues, family matters, payments, and other civil cases. When both sides agree on a solution, the case is closed. This method helps people save time and money. Also, court fees for civil cases that are settled will be refunded.
She also highlighted that only minor criminal cases, such as traffic violations and minor assaults, will be handled in the Lok Adalat. She encouraged the public to take advantage of this opportunity.
After this announcement, a Swachh Bharat program took place in the court premises. The program was led by Nerella Venkata Haima Poojitha, Principal Junior Civil Judge, and Darawat Uday Nayak, Additional Junior Civil Judge. Court staff and other participants joined in the event.
