Writ Petition No.2751 of 2011 10.10.2011 Shri Vijay Assudani, learned counsel for the petitioner. Shri Arpit Oswal, learned counsel for the respondents. With consent heard finally. By this petition filed under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, the petitioner is seeking quashment of the order/notice dated 14.03.2011 (Annexure P-13) calling upon the petitioner to pay the amount demanded through the said notice failing which the said amount shall be adjusted or set off against any sum payable to it under this or any other contract with the Government. According to the petitioner by issuing the impugned notice/order the third respondent is acting as an Arbitrator in his own cause which is contrary to the law laid down by a Full Bench of this Court in the case of B.B.Verma & another Vs. State of M.P. & another 2007 (III) MPJR (FB) 251. According to the petitioner, though a prayer for appointment of Arbitrator has been made to the respondents for adjudicating the dispute between the parties by serving a notice dated 05.01.2011 (Annexure P-9) but till date no appointment of Arbitrator has been made and instead the notice dated 14.03.2011 (Annexure P-13) has been issued for recovering the amount which is under dispute liable to be decided by the Arbitrator. Learned counsel appearing for the respondents very fairly stated that the respondents are not proceeding to take any coercive steps in the matter till the dispute is decided by the Arbitrator as may be appointed. In view of the aforesaid stand taken by the respondents, learned counsel for the petitioner submits that this petition may be disposed of by directing the respondents not to take any coercive steps in pursuance to the impugned order/notice dated 14.03.2011 (Annexure P-13) till the dispute is decided by the Arbitrator. The prayer appears to be reasonable. In view of the aforesaid, we are inclined to dispose of this petition by directing the respondents not to take any coercive steps in the matter till the dispute raised by the petitioner is adjudicated by a duly appointed Arbitrator. The petition stands disposed of. Cc within three days. (Shantanu Kemkar) (Prakash Shrivastava) Judge Judge AM.
