The second National Lok Adalat of 2025 will be organised in 28 states and Union Territories (UTs) across the country on May 10 under the aegis of the National Legal Services Authority (NALSA).

It will further address cases related to labour disputes, matrimonial disputes (excluding divorce cases), land acquisition cases, intellectual property rights (IPR) matters, consumer matters, and other civil cases.
