Lok Adalat Awareness Camp

Overview

The GNLU LSC spearheaded the Lok Adalat Awareness Camp, an initiative under the aegis of the District Legal Services Committee (DSLA) Gandhinagar. The team undertook a journey into the heart of Koba Village, Gandhinagar Taluka where awareness campaigns highlighting the Lok Adalat, and the process therein were demonstrated through Nukkad Natak and aided through pamphlets distributed. The drive seeks to bring the concept of justice closer to the local community, ensuring that the ethos resonated with every individual of the community. The team of volunteers routinely organize these camps with advice of the National Lok Adalat's’ with the aim to drive legal resolution among public through ADR mechanisms and assist them in understanding the machinery of Lok Adalat.

Objective

The primary objective of the initiative is to foster an environment that promotes equitable and accessible machinery to justice and to raise legal awareness among the underprivileged sections of the society. Lok Adalat is aimed at providing an alternate dispute resolution platform to cases, ranging from loan settlements to electricity bill disputes, ensuring that justice is swift and fair.
