Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the reasonableness of an arbitrator's reasons for an award cannot be challenged under Article 136 of the Constitution. The Court emphasized that the appraisement of evidence by the arbitrator is not subject to judicial review, as the arbitrator is the sole judge of evidence quality and quantity. The Court found no violation of natural justice principles and upheld the High Court's rejection of the challenge to the award, affirming that the arbitrator's reasoning was cogent and rationally connected to the conclusion.
