JUSTICE J.S. KHEHAR, HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE S.D. ANAND. Present : Mr. Naresh Kaushal, Advocate, for the petitioners. J.S. Khehar, J. (Oral) C.M. No. 13340 of 2009 CM is allowed. Annexure P/8 is taken on record, subject to all just exceptions. CWP No. 10966 of 2009 The sole grievance of the petitioners in the present case is, that inspite of the objections raised by the petitioners, the respondents are not appointing an arbitrator. Insofar as the issue of appointment of an arbitrator is concerned, we are satisfied that the petitioners have an efficacious alternative remedy under the provisions of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996. CWP No. 10966 of 2009 In view of the above, the instant writ petition is dismissed. Liberty is granted to the petitioners to avail of their alternative remedy, if they are so advised. ( J.S. Khehar ) Judge August 12, 2009 ( S.D. Anand ) vkd Judge 2
