Resolving disputes with healing effect: the practice of mediation in India

Anirban Chakraborty, Shuvro Prosun Sarker

Resumen


This paper has traced the background and evolution of mediation movement in India. Discussing about the beginning of the advocacy for ADR and mediation in the late 1990, how the mediation movement has gained momentum in past two decades. It is pertinent to note the policy and legislative introduced to popularize mediation and encourage its adoption. Also, the statistical data presented from various sources reflects about the efforts undertaken towards augmenting appropriate infrastructural and human resource to strengthen its ecosystem. However, the brightness of these development must not blindfold us to ignore about the gaps that still exist. Unless these gaps are addressed the future of mediation will remain uncertain.
