Sagar Watch News/ A total of 50 benches were constituted, which resolved 3,976 cases, including 1,773 pending litigations and 2,203 pre-litigation matters.
Settlements resulted in awards worth ₹16,92,01,148, covering diverse cases such as motor accident claims (₹3.55 crore), cheque bounce disputes (₹6.67 crore), criminal compoundable cases, family disputes, civil matters, and electricity cases. Pre-litigation settlements alone contributed ₹3.46 crore in revenue.
Today Sagar City has witnessed a major legal milestone with the successful organization of the National Lok Adalat at the District Court and all Tehsil courts, under the guidance of the National Legal Services Authority, New Delhi, and Madhya Pradesh State Legal Services Authority, Jabalpur.
The event was inaugurated by District and Sessions Judge, Shri Mahesh Kumar Sharma, who emphasized that Lok Adalats provide the most accessible and cost-effective means of dispute resolution, saving both time and money for litigants.
Significant success stories included settlements via video conferencing, ensuring timely compensation in long-pending motor accident cases. Notably, one accident case secured a compensation of ₹16 lakh despite the vehicle being uninsured. Family disputes also saw reconciliation through counseling, with parties agreeing to resume cohabitation.
The Lok Adalat once again demonstrated how alternative dispute resolution mechanisms can deliver justice efficiently, reinforcing trust in the judiciary.
