Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed whether issues should be framed in applications under Section 34 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996. The Court held that such applications are summary in nature and do not require framing issues as in adversarial proceedings, affirming the lower court's decision. The ruling clarified that the applicant must prove grounds under Section 34(2) without the necessity of formal issues, emphasizing the need for expeditious disposal of arbitration challenges.
