Telangana Judge Urges Mediation for Faster, More Accessible Justice

A new court has opened in Maripeda in Telangana.

Justice E.V. Venu Gopal said mediation can help solve some disputes faster.

Mediation is a process where people try to reach an agreement with help from a neutral person.

It can prevent cases from continuing in court for a long time.

He said judges and other legal officials should work together.

The new court means local residents will not have to travel as far for court work.

Justice Namavarapu Rajeshwar Rao also supported wider use of mediation.

Lawyers were asked to tell people when mediation might help them.
