I am glad to note your interest in settling the issue before the lok adalat.  It is a good system to settle the disputes easily.

 

If the other party does not agree to appear before lok adalat, then the proceedings before court has to continue.  No party can be compelled to appear before the lok adalat.  Only upon the consent of both the parties the court can direct or refer the matter to lok adalat.  I suggest you to meet your tenant and inform him your offer of settling the disputes before lok adalat.  Good Luck.

if other side is agreed it is better to compromise in the lok adalat, because judgement passed in the lok adalat cannot be challenged. Both party should be present before the lok adalat.

Settlement in Lock adalath is very good; but do you think that the tenant will agree to settle the matter in Lok adalath when he can drag on the matter in the court and continue occupation of the building for all that period.  I am not advicing that you should not go to lok adalath but points out that the tenant who is interested to drag on the case will not be amenable for such a proposal
