The court held that the Lok Adalat properly found the bank (not the insurer) at fault for failing to disclose policy terms, and that PLA awards are final and binding under Section 22E of the Legal Services Authorities Act, 1987, with no manifest procedural or jurisdictional error warranting High Court interference.
