T.Venkateswara Rao, v. The District Legal Services Authority
Case brief
What is this about?
The Court dismissed a writ petition seeking to quash a Lok Adalat award regarding service continuity and back wages. The petition alleged fraud, but the Court held that fraud requires cogent evidence and cannot be proved merely by showing records, dismissing the plea on that ground alone.
What did the court decide?
Writ petition dismissed; liberty granted to challenge the Award on fraud ground.
