C.W.P. No.13107 of 2011 -1- IN THE HIGH COURT FOR THE STATES OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH C.W.P. No.13107 of 2011 Date of Decision.26.07.2011 2. C.W.P. No.13108 to 13112 of 2011 Welspun Corp. Ltd. .....Petitioner Versus The Micro and Small, Medium Enterprises Facilitation Council, Punjab through its Chairman and others .....Respondents Present: Mr. Puneet Bali, Advocate for the petitioner. CORAM:HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE K. KANNAN 1. Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment ? No 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not ? No 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? No -.- K. KANNAN J.(ORAL) 1. The petitioner is aggrieved against refusal of a demand by him on the 1st respondent for termination of conciliation and seeking for a referral to arbitration as the arbitral agreement. The prayer for termination of conciliation has been rejected under Section 76. The petitioner is aggrieved about the same and is making a challenge to the order rejecting his prayer for termination. 2. The petitioner, in my view, has no need to persist for a situation where he does not want to participate in the conciliation and invite a settlement, which he is not willing to have with the contesting party. The petitioner is entitled to seek for a reference to arbitration ignoring the impugned letter and if ever there is a refusal to refer the matter to arbitration, the petitioner will have appropriate remedy under C.W.P. No.13107 of 2011 -2- the Arbitration and Conciliation Act for appointment of an arbitrator in terms of Section 11. Since the petitioner has other remedies under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act by invoking the provisions of the Act, I decline intervention and accordingly dispose of all the writ petitions reserving to the petitioner the liberty as aforesaid.
