To resolve cases through mediation the JHAlSA Ranchi on Saturday sent a three-member team to Palamu civil court to brush up the eight mediators and also to create awareness among the lawyers and the clients to adopt this procedure. The three members were Madhusudan Ganguli, Neelam Shekhar and Sheela - all advocates and mediators in the civil court Ranchi.
The secretary DlSA Palamu Uttam Anand arranged the MAP (Mediation Awareness Programme) here on Saturday. It was Mediator Ganguli. The two lady Mediators Neelam and Sheela also urged the modest gathering to take recourse to Mediation in resolution of cases as Mediation leaves no scar of any bitterness and sense of any defeat or victory.
Civil courts in the districts of the state are now holding public gathering shows every now and then and the major share of the show is credited to lok adalat which is held every last Saturday of a month space crunch is the bane of the civil court here which can be eased out once the Nayaya Sadan is ready here.
The principal district and sessions judge Palamu civil court KK Srivastava speaking over phone to The Pioneer from Ranchi as he is there for his training schedule there said efforts will be made to ensure the completion of Nayaya Sadan here. The MAP revealed a sad picture of Mediation in India in comparison to America and B' Desh said Ganguli who said in these 2 countries 90% cases are resolved through Mediation while in India it is yet to take off in a grand way.
Discounting fears of the lawyers that Mediation will come as a seal on their income/economy Ganguli said a lawyer who has a successful Mediation has enormous chances of earnings and income too.
Rs 1,400 is given to a lawyer for a successful mediation while in failed ones which should not be less than three attempt the fee is just 350 rupees said a functionary of the court Sanjeev Kumar who sits in the court's Front Office here.
