T.A.No.241 of 2009 1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH T.A.No.241 of 2009 Date of Decision : 14.10.2009 M/s Mithan Lal Kalra Rice & General Mills ...Petitioner Versus PUNSUP and another ...Respondents CORAM:HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE HEMANT GUPTA Present: Mr. R.S.Rangpuri, Advocate, for the petitioners. Ms. Jaspal Kaur Gurna, Advocate, for the respondents. HEMANT GUPTA, J. (ORAL) The petitioner has sought transfer of Arbitration Case No.292 dated 28.11.2006 titled “PUNSUP Vs. M/s Mithan Lal Kalra etc.” pending in the Court of Sh. Raj Shekhar Attri, Addl. District Judge, Chandigarh to the Court of Addl. District Judge, Muktsar, wherein another Arbitration Case No.28 dated 28.11.2006 against the same award is pending. The award dated 30.8.2006 was passed by the sole Arbitrator in respect of disputes between the parties. The petitioner has filed objections under Section 34 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 in the Court of Addl. District Judge, Muktsar on 28.11.2006, where as the respondent-PUNSUP has also filed objections under Section 34 of the Act at Chandigarh on the same date i.e. 28.11.2006. Since, the said objections have been filed by the parties at two different places in respect of same award, therefore, both the cases are to be decided by one Court to T.A.No.241 of 2009 2 avoid contradictory judgments. Parties are at variance in respect of stage of proceedings pending at Muktsar and Chandigarh, but since the Arbitrator has given his award at Chandigarh, therefore, I deem it appropriate to transfer Arbitration Case No.28 of 28.11.2006 filed by the petitioner and pending before the Court of learned Addl. District Judge, Muktsar to the Court of Sh. Raj Shekhar Attri, Addl. District Judge, Chandigarh. Parties through their counsel are directed to appear before the Court of Sh. Raj Shekhar Attri, Addl. District Judge, Chandigarh on 16.10.2009, the date already fixed in the objections filed by the respondent-PUNSUP. 14.10.2009 (HEMANT GUPTA) Vimal JUDGE
