Abstract

Indian courts have historically been seen as being slow to make decisions, and as number of cases has increased, they have become overworked and have become incredibly slow. Alternative Dispute Resolution, or "ADR," is step-relative of overworked courts. It changed over time and made an effort to stay up with shifting worldwide trends. Rapid globalization almost likely leads to more disputes, whether they are business-related or not. "ADR" procedures including conciliation, mediation, and arbitration grew in acceptance and were incorporated into business contracts. In order to avoid civil court jurisdiction, parties chose arbitration. But over last ten years, courts have gradually broadened Act's application to include more judicial participation prior to achieving "real" order finality. Compared to formal civil litigation, private and judicial arbitration is typically less expensive and takes less time. This research work traces all important aspects of “Judicial mechanism and "ADR" in India” in an all-inclusive way and to achieve new insights into it to trace origin and development of Existing Judicial mechanism in India along with "ADR" Mechanism. Further authors examine critically effect of existing judicial mechanism and "ADR" Mechanism including comparative analysis between existing judiciary mechanism and "ADR" Mechanism.
