The Lok Adalat is extending relief for minor violations, including driving without a seatbelt, riding two-wheelers without helmets, jumping red lights, wrongly issued challans, overspeeding, driving without a valid PUC certificate, parking in no-parking zones, driving without a driver's license, operating a vehicle without a fitness certificate, wrong lane driving, breaking traffic signals, and driving without a number plate.
Serious cases will not be heard in Lok Adalat. Those will be handled in regular courts:
Driving under the influence
Hit and Run cases
Death by negligence
Illegal racing or high-speed accidents
Driving by minors
Vehicles used in crimes
Cases already on trial
Challans issued in other states
Cases in Lok Adalat will be heard based on the token number. Judges will review the challan and may either waive the entire fine or offer concessions. In severe or repeated violations, fines may still apply. Once the order is passed, the case is considered resolved.
Typically, Lok Adalat offers up to 60% discount on traffic challans, though some may see reductions up to 75%. Overall, this Lok Adalat stands as a great relief platform for those with pending challans. If you've ever been fined for not wearing seat belts, helmets, or overspeeding and have avoided paying, don’t miss out on this opportunity.
