Nirmal Mediation Forum, a private organisation in Pune, wants to offer mediation services under the Mediation Act, 2023, as a mediation service provider under the category of a body or organisation. What must it obtain?

The private body must be recognised by the Council in the manner specified. Deemed recognition applies only to Legal Services Authorities, court-annexed mediation centres and other bodies notified by the Central Government, not to private organisations.

Explanation

A body or organisation providing for conduct of mediation falls within the definition only if recognised by the Council, and recognition is granted in the manner specified. Deemed recognition is available only to Legal Services Authorities, court-annexed centres and bodies notified by the Central Government, so it does not apply to a private body.
