Nagaland's Department of Information and Public Relations reported that the National Society of Legal Services (NSLSA) has carried out its third quarterly National Lok Adalat across the state. The Lok Adalat, a statutory forum for amicable settlement of civil and commercial disputes, was organized to provide free legal assistance and expedite case resolution.
The event spanned multiple districts, allowing litigants to present their cases before a panel of legal experts and magistrates without the formalities of a regular court. Participants were encouraged to settle matters ranging from family disputes to property issues, aiming to reduce the backlog of pending cases.
NSLSA officials highlighted that the quarterly Lok Adalat is part of a broader effort to enhance access to justice in Nagaland, especially for marginalized communities. The department reiterated its commitment to continue such initiatives throughout the year.
The initiative reflects the state's focus on alternative dispute resolution mechanisms, aligning with national policies that promote speedy and cost‑effective justice delivery.
Further details on the number of cases resolved or specific outcomes were not disclosed at the time of the announcement.
