Telangana records landmark legal settlements, cyber refunds worth over Rs 45 cr

Hyderabad, June 15 (UNI) The National Lok Adalat held across Telangana witnessed a remarkable success with the disposal of 1,93,439 cases, including 6,294 cyber fraud cases.
This initiative, conducted as per the directions of the Supreme Court, aimed at amicably settling compoundable cases and offering financial relief to victims, especially those affected by cybercrimes.
The settlement drive, which began on June 9 and culminated on June 14, was coordinated by the Telangana State Legal Services Authority (TSLSA) in collaboration with District Judges, Magistrates, District Legal Services Authorities, Police Commissioners, Superintendents of Police, and the State Cyber Security Bureau.

It addressed a wide range of legal matters, including FIRs, Disaster Management Act violations, petty offences, and Motor Vehicle Act cases. The state recorded a notable increase in case disposals compared to the previous National Lok Adalat held on March 8, 2025, where 1,83,182 cases were resolved.
Apart from regular legal cases, a significant aspect of this edition of the Lok Adalat was the refund of money to victims of cybercrime. Several police units across Telangana actively worked on refunding amounts that were put on hold in cyber fraud cases.
Hyderabad, Cyberabad, Rachakonda, TGCSB, and Sangareddy were among the top-performing units in facilitating cybercrime-related refunds, which collectively amounted to over Rs 45 crore. This effort not only ensured financial justice but also restored the confidence of the public in the legal and policing system.
The Director General of Police, Telangana Dr Jitender, appreciated the DIG and DSP of SCRB along with the SCRB team for their dedicated coordination with unit officers under the direct supervision of Ms. Charu Sinha, ADGP, CID.
He also congratulated all Commissioners of Police and Superintendents of Police for their teams' exceptional performance during the Lok Adalat. The success of this initiative is a testament to the effective collaboration between the legal and law enforcement systems, which provided a much-needed platform for citizens to resolve disputes quickly and peacefully.
Officials have urged the public to make full use of the National Lok Adalat mechanism in future as well, emphasizing its role in reducing court burdens, saving time and expenses, and bringing timely resolution and peace of mind to all parties involved, a statement from DGP office said on Sunday.
