⚖️ LEGAL LEARNING | PERMANENT LOK ADALAT ⚖️
By Shri Ganpati Jurists
📌 Case Insight:
Nand Kishor Singh v. State of Jharkhand (DB)
🚫 Permanent Lok Adalat ≠ Universal Court
✅ Key Takeaway:
A Permanent Lok Adalat (PLA) can decide disputes ONLY relating to “Public Utility Services” under Section 22-C of the Legal Services Authorities Act, 1987.
❌ What PLA CANNOT Decide:
• Land acquisition compensation disputes
• Property disputes
• Matters beyond Section 22-A
⚠️ Important Ruling:
Any order passed by a PLA without jurisdiction is ❗Coram Non-Judice & a Nullity in Law❗
📚 Public Utility Services Include:
🚍 Transport
📮 Postal / Telecom
💡 Power / Water
🏥 Hospital Services
🛡️ Insurance Services
⚖️ Legal Principle:
Jurisdiction is the foundation — without it, every order collapses.
