Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the issue of territorial jurisdiction concerning petitions under Section 34 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996. The Court held that both the writ petition and the Section 34 petition should be heard together in the High Court of Delhi, as the matters were interconnected. The Court transferred the writ petition from the High Court of Allahabad to the High Court of Delhi for consolidated adjudication, emphasizing the need for a unified approach in resolving the disputes arising from the arbitration proceedings.
