Services Authorities Act, 1987 and in particular Section 20 thereof.
Prima facie, we are of the view that if there is no settlement arrived at
before the Lok Adalat, the obligation of the Lok Adalat is to return the
record of the case to the concerned Court for disposal in accordance
with law. Prima facie, it appears to us that the Lok Adalat does not get
jurisdiction to decide the case referred to it on merits on the ground
that the case is not contested.
