Many people who have experience with ADR become very committed. People are also enthusiastic to resolve disputes locally. Still people very frequently go for legal procedures due to the following reasons:

• There cannot be file appeal against the award of the Mediator or arbitrator.

• Not consistent with rule of law.

• Peoples` lack of trust of community leadership

• Sometimes faced with biased decisions.

• Too much interference in the process by powerful people

• Fear of losing dignity and prestige

• Persons dealing with ADR do not have adequate knowledge and experience

• Decisions are not legally binding

• Cannot be a substitute for a formal judicial system.

In this part l am trying to explain all these limitations which are related to the ADR.
