Addressing a legal awareness camp on Alternative Dispute Resolution Mechanism (ADRM) here, he said the time has come to take this step especially for poor litigants.

He asked lawyers to advise their clients for filing only such cases which could not be solved by Lok Adalats or by ADRM.

"If this is done it will be a real justice to the poor people," he said.

Lawyers have a significant role in providing guidelines to their clients as they first knock at their doors before moving court, the Chief Justice said.

Correct advice to their clients then would not only spare their pockets but they would also like to come to lawyers, he said.

 

Laying the foundation stone for the 6th Nyaya Sadan building in Jharkhand in the campus of Civil Court here, he said cases for mediation through ADRM would be taken up at the Nyaya Sadans.
