Lok Adalat Online Traffic Challan: Lok Adalat, referred to as the "People's Court," acts as an important arm of India's alternative dispute resolution system. It was set up under the Legal Services Authorities Act of 1987 to help people settle disputes in a quick, cost-free manner. These courts operate under the National Legal Services Authority (NALSA) and try to ease the load on regular courts. NALSA, along with State and District Legal Services Authorities, regularly organises Lok Adalats across the country. In 2025, National Lok Adalats are scheduled for the second Saturday of March, May, September, and December. The upcoming National Lok Adalat will be held on September 13.
