Khammam: Disputes can better be settled by arbitration and it will help in establishing a better society, said Principal District Judge and Chairmen of District Legal Services Authority I Ramesh here on Saturday. A two day workshop was organised on “alternative disputes resolution methods” jointly by Telangana Legal Services Authority and International Centre for Alternative Dispute Resolution of Hyderabad here at Technology Training Development Centre (TTDC).
The Principal District Judge, who was the chief guest at the workshop, said "Certain doubts are raised in the beginning about settling of disputes through arbitration. There was a misleading campaign that courts were not working properly and an alternative method of settling disputes are introduced to reduce the burden on courts. But it proved that it was wrong that Alternative dispute resolution methods are adopted for such reasons.
They were being used because they helped in resolving legal disputes quickly and at low cost and more privately. "He also said the people were now seeking settlement of dispute through Lok Adalats. He cited the success of mega Lok Adalat held recently in Khammam district. The government should allot additional budget to strengthen the system. Allocation of additional budget for this system would enable the junior lawyers gain confidence and get recognition in their profession."
The representative of International Centre for Alternative Dispute Resolution J L N Murhty said the organisation would hold awareness programmes on the alternative dispute resolution methods for the judges, advocates and the representatives of voluntary organisations. District Legal Cell President Y Srinivas, Bar Council member Kolli Sathyanarayana, District Legal Services Authority Secretary P Kashi Vishweshwar Rao and other were present.
