Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: D
Explanation

Lok Adalats take up pre‑litigation and pending matters of civil and compoundable criminal nature and specifically include consumer/service disputes, motor accident claims and service matters such as pension cases. Official National/State Lok Adalat notifications list motor accident claim cases and service matters including pension-related disputes among categories taken up, and also cover consumer and public‑utility/service grievances which would include disputes with service providers (e.g., mobile/cellular companies) [1]. Textbook summaries of Lok Adalat jurisdiction similarly enumerate service matters and motor accident claims as matters regularly settled in National and State Lok Adalats, confirming that all three categories (1, 2 and 3) are admissible to Lok Adalats [2].
