In a landmark initiative geared toward lessening courts' pressure and focusing on dispute resolution, the Delhi Traffic Police will collaborate with DSLSA in holding a National Lok Adalat on May 10, 2025, from 10 AM to 4 PM.
During this one-day special session, vehicle owners will be provided with an opportunity to settle compoundable traffic challans, including on-the-spot fines, through notices issued until January 31, 2025.
The Lok Adalat shall be conducted in seven major court complexes in the city, viz., Dwarka, Karkardooma, Patiala House, Rohini, Rouse Avenue, Saket, and Tis Hazari.
What Is Lok Adalat and Why Should One Care About It?
Lok Adalats are alternative dispute resolution forums, where amicable settlements can be achieved without resorting to the traditional procedures of the court. These are constituted under the Legal Services Authorities Act of 1987 and provide decisions that are binding, final, and without an appeal option. This provides a quicker way of disposing of matters such as pending traffic challans.
Step-by-Step Procedure to Secure the Token for Lok Adalat

Submit the registration form and the confirmation shall occur along with a link to download the token.

Important Reminders Before You Visit
It is necessary for everyone to bring paper prints of both their challans and the Lok Adalat token. No printing will be done at the court premises. The token will also disambiguate which court you need to report to, along with the time slot allocated to your case.
This particular Lok Adalat will provide you with a unique opportunity to get your all pending challans cleared expeditiously--without any legal hassles and rushing through numerous court dates.
