Statutory finality of Lok Adalat award excludes appellate/penal civil remedy; only remedy is High Court’s supervisory jurisdiction: Supreme Court
The Executing Court’s role in enforcing a decree based on a Lok Adalat award under the Legal Services Authorities Act, 1987 is limited to execution alone. It cannot annul, set aside, or question the validity of the award, and objections in execution cannot serve as an alternative remedy to challenge the award.
