The program was led by Shri Ojesh Mutum, Member Secretary, Manipur State Legal Services Authority and i/c District and Sessions Judge, Ukhrul and Shri PA.

Shri Ojesh Mutum, i/c District and Sessions Judge, Ukhrul appealed the general public to take the opportunities provided by Lok Adalat as it is an effective means of Alternative Dispute Resolutions (ADR) to bring amicable resolution of disputes.
He added that unlike the proceedings in civil court, there is no court fee payable when a matter is filed in a Lok Adalat and also it saves time in bringing an amicable solution for the parties involved. Further, he seeks co-operation from all the stakeholders to resolve their disputes amicably through Lok Adalat and other ADR processes.
The aim of the Poster Campaign was to make the general public more aware of the availability of Lok Adalat as an effective means of Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) and of the availability of the free legal services in general; and to encourage the general public to avail the opportunity of Lok Adalat.
Further, posters were displayed at prominent places such as Court Complex, Police Stations, District Hospitals, CHCs, Post Offices, Churches, market places and other strategic locations.
