Notably, Lok Adalat is being held to promote mutual understanding among parties, eliminates bitterness, and saves time, money, and effort. The Lok Adalat is also special in a sense that here no party loses, both parties win. Also, if a case is resolved in Lok Adalat, court fees are refunded. The decisions/orders of Lok Adalat are final and cannot be appealed. Once a case is resolved in Lok Adalat, the dispute is permanently settled between the parties.
