MGMT.COMMT.,MONTFORT SR.SECONDARY SCHOOL vs VIJAY KUMAR .

The Supreme Court upheld the Delhi High Court's ruling that the Delhi School Tribunal was not required to refer the appeal of a dismissed employee to arbitration under Section 8(1) of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, despite the provisions of Section 15(3)(e) of the Delhi School Education Act, 1973 suggesting mandatory arbitration for disputes arising from service contracts. The Court clarified that while arbitration is mandated for certain disputes, the specific context of the appeal under Section 8(3) does not necessitate such a referral. The appeal was dismissed, affirming the Tribunal's decision.
