Grounds for Challenge - The primary grounds include fraud, lack of jurisdiction, or procedural violations. Challenges based on fraud are specifically recognized, but courts have held that if the award is obtained through fraud, it can be set aside under Article 227 Raj Mangal Raut Ramani VS State of Bihar - Patna, Sangluri VS H. Lalhmingmawia - Gauhati.
Jurisdictional Limitations - While the Lok Adalat award is generally binding and not appealable under the Legal Services Authorities Act, Section 21(2), it remains open to challenge via writ petitions under Article 226 or 227 in the High Court. The scope of judicial review under Article 227 is limited but includes examining jurisdiction and procedural fairness Sakina Sultanali Sunesara (Momin) VS Shia Imami Ismaili Momin Jamat Samaj - Supreme Court.
Summary - In conclusion, a Lok Adalat award can be challenged under Article 227 of the Constitution of India, especially on grounds like fraud or lack of jurisdiction.
