2. LOK ADALAT FOR FAMILY/MATRIMONIAL DISPUTES:
Delhi
Legal Services Authority organizes special Lok Adalat
to deal with matrimonial and family disputes also.It
has been the priority of this Authority to settle the
disputes between the parties particularly in matrimonial
and family matters at pre-litigative stage itself. Considering
the huge backlog of the cases in the courts, it is the
endeavour of the Authority to minimize the litigation
so as to lessen the burden of the courts and also to
save the time and money of the parties involved. On
receipt of a particular complaint, notice is sent to
the opposite party and then efforts are made to make
the parties sit across the table and bring them to a
mutually acceptable settlement. It is heartening to
note that more than 50 per cent cases are settled at
pre-litigative stage itself.
