The correct answer is Option (3) → Increasing cost of litigation in prosecuting or defending

ADR is being encouraged amongst the disputants to reduce delays and high pendency of court cases. The rise of ADR is further supported, as the law courts are confronted with following problems, such as:

1. The lack of number of courts and judges which creates an inadequacy within the justice delivery system;

2. The increasing litigation in India due to increasing population, complexity of laws and obsolete continuation of some pre-existing legal statutes;

3. The increasing cost of litigation in prosecuting or defending a case, increasing court fees, lawyers fees and incidental expenses;

4. Delay in disposal of cases resulting in huge pendency in all the courts
