“The numbers speak for themselves and the overwhelming response to the Revenue Lok Adalats has effectively resolved a record number of pending revenue cases in a time-bound manner. It is for the first time that any state government has focused on disposing of pending revenue cases on a mission mode, and tangible results are evident,” he said.
