Judgment text excerpt
The High Court of Punjab and Haryana upheld the dismissal of the Revision Petition against the award made by the sole arbitrator under the Indian Arbitration Act, 1940, specifically Sections 30 and 33. The court found that the arbitrator had jurisdiction to adjudicate the claims and that the objections raised by SAIL regarding bias and jurisdictional errors were without merit. The court confirmed the validity of the award dated September 7, 1993, thereby affirming the lower court's decision.
