Aurangabad, Aug 24 (UNI) For the first time, Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited (BSNL) has organised a Lok Adalat at the magistrate court here for the customers to settle their pending complaints on August 31.

Addressing a press conference yesterday, BSNL General Manager (district) N Rajashekar said, around 750 notices were issued to the customers to clear the dues in the Lok Adalat, out of which 600 accepted the notices, while the remaining were returned.
