Message ADS Private Limited, Safabad, Hyderabad, and another .. Respondents THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE V.V.S. RAO AND THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE B.N. RAO NALLA C.R.P. No.3933 of 2002 ORDER (per Hon’ble Sri Justice B.N. Rao Nalla): This Civil Revision Petition is filed by the A.P.S.R.T.C. against the order, dated 22.02.2002 passed in O.P.No.15 of 1999 on the file of I Senior Civil Judge, City Civil Court, Hyderabad. 2. The brief facts of the case are as follows: The sole arbitrator was appointed by the I Senior Civil Judge, City Civil Court, Hyderabad in O.P.No.146 of 1995 to adjudicate the dispute between the parties arising out of the contract agreement dated 25.11.1988. After hearing both sides and after considering the documents filed by both parties, the learned Arbitrator came to the conclusion that the termination of the contract by the respondents 1 & 2 with effect from 02.04.1991 was not justified and he passed a well-reasoned order by awarding Rs.97,19,334/- meeting the points raised by either side. Therefore, the contractor filed O.P.No.15 of 1999 before the same Court under Section 17 of the Arbitration Act, 1940 seeking to pass the judgment and decree in terms of the award of Arbitrator by ordering the same as Rule of the Court. O.P.No.17 of 1999 was filed by APSRTC before the same Court under Section 30 of the Arbitration Act seeking to set aside the award passed by the Arbitrator. 3. The learned Senior Civil Judge, after conducting joint enquiry, passed common order dated 22.02.2002 in both OPs and the award passed by the Arbitrator was modified and awarded only Rs.25,02,463/- as against Rs.97,19,334/-. Aggrieved by the same, APSRTC filed the present civil revision petition seeking to set aside the order passed by I Senior Civil Judge, City Civil Court, Hyderabad in O.P.No.15 of 1999 making the award Rule of the Court to an extent of Rs.25,02,463/-. 4. Heard both sides. 5. In this matter, C.M.A.No.2800 of 2002 was also filed by the contractor before this Court under Section 39 of the Arbitration Act seeking to allow the claim of Rs.72,16,187/- set aside by the I Senior Civil Judge, City Civil Court, Hyderabad in O.P.No.15 of 2009. Another C.M.A. No.2359 of 2002 was also filed by APSRTC before this Court under Section 39 of the Arbitration Act against the order in O.P.No.17 of 1999 making the award Rule of the Court to an extent of Rs.25,02,463/-. 6. By common order dated 03.08.2009 the Division Bench of this Court after considering the facts and circumstances, allowed C.M.A.No.2359 of 2002 partly reducing the interest on claim No.1 from 18% per annum to 9% per annum from 03.11.1995 till the date of realization and dismissed the C.M.A.No.2800 of 2002. 7. During the course of arguments, the learned counsel on either side also brought to the notice of this Court about the reduction of interest on claim No.1 from 18% per annum to 9% per annum, as stated supra. 8. After hearing both sides and after considering the facts and circumstances of the case as well as the material on record, we are of the considered view that the impugned order dated 22.02.2002 passed by the I Senior Civil Judge, City Civil Court, Hyderabad in O.P.No.15 of 2009 does not warrant interference from this Court in any manner and therefore, the revision is devoid of merits as deserves to be dismissed. 9. In the result, the Civil Revision Petition is dismissed and there shall be no order as to costs. __________________ V.V.S.RAO, J ____________________ B.N. RAO NALLA, J Date: 10.11.2009 Isn
