IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA REQ. CASE No.43 of 2008 M/s. Jai Bajrangwalee Stone works, Netajee Subhash Colony, Sahibganj, Jharkhand. Through Prakash Chandra Yadav, Proprietor……………………………..Petitioner. Versus 1. The Union of India through the General Manager, East Central Railway, Hajipur. 2. The Chief Administrative Officer (Construction), E.C. Railway, Mahendrughat, Patna. 3. The Chief Engineer (Construction), N – 1, E.C. Railway, Mahendrughat, Patna………………….Respondents. For the petitioner : Mr. Chakradhari Sharan Singh, Advocate. For the respondents : Mr. A. Amamullah, Advocate. ----------- 07/ 23.07.2010 Heard learned counsel for the petitioner and learned counsel for the respondents. This petition has been filed for appointment of substituted Arbitrators in place of the Arbitrators appointed by the General Manager, E.C. Railway, Hajipur on 26.06.2007, who did not proceed at all with regard to the dispute under reference after their appointment. Three years have lapsed and neither the Arbitrators have taken any step nor the respondents have appointed a fresh Arbitrator cancelling the earlier order. Learned counsel for the respondents very fairly submits that if this court directs, Arbitrators can be appointed within a week. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that he will have no objection, if it is so done. In the said circumstances, this request case is disposed of with a direction to the respondents to appoint Arbitrators in 2 place of the earlier Arbitrators directing them to proceed with the matter immediately and to decide the same expeditiously preferably within a period of six months. harish/ ( S.
