About Lok Adalats in India what is NOT CORRECT?
- Lok Adalat’s functioning is based on ADR System
- Lok Adalats’ awards are final and binding
- Lok Adalats entertain the cases at pre litigation stage only
- Lok Adalats have the powers like Civil Courts
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C - Lok Adalats entertain the cases at pre litigation stage only
Lok Adalats handle both pending cases and pre-litigation disputes, so 'pre-litigation stage only' is wrong. They are an ADR mechanism, their awards are final and binding, and they have certain civil court powers.
