The Odisha State Legal Services Authority (OSLSA) organised a 40-hour Mediation Training Workshop for the advocates of western Odisha, as per the NALSA module, starting from the day of Utkal Divas, i.e April 1, 2023.
The training Workshop will continue from 1st to 5th April 2023. 24 advocates from the western districts of Odisha, such as Sundargarh, Jharsuguda and Sambalpur participated in this Workshop.
The program was inaugurated by Justice S. Talapatra, Executive Chairman of OSLSA and Chairman of Mediation Monitoring Committee, in the presence of Justice Krushna Ram Mohapatra, Justice Savitri Ratho and Justice Mruganka Sekhar Sahoo.
Justice Talapatra, while delivering the inaugural address, said that one does not lose anything in the process of mediation. The parties to mediation do not lose their dignity or self-respect, rather get rid of their ego and unreasonableness.
Justice Mohapatra while addressing the gathering, encouraged the trainee advocates to take the Workshop as a foundation to undergo the training and know the fundamentals of it, so that they can resolve disputes effectively.
Justice Sahoo highlighted that a good mediator must have trustworthiness, approachability, dedication, perceptiveness and impartiality, amongst other qualities and that the solution is found out by the parties themselves, and not by the mediator.
The training is being imparted by Ms. Rathna Thara R. and Dr. S. Padma, both of whom are the expert trainers at the Mediation and Conciliation Project Committee (MCPC).
