The respected fellow Colleague
My Company is a 100% State Govt owned Company under Department of Forests.
Very recently the Company entering into a dealership agreement with a dealer.
The agreement contain a clause :
"Every dispute, difference, or question which may at any time arise between the parties hereto or any person claiming under them, touching or arising out of or in respect of this agreement (deed) or the subject matter thereof shall be referred to the PRINCIPAL SECRETARY OF THE Department of Forests who act as an sole arbitrator."
My query is :
Is it a Valid clause as per arbitration and conciliation act 1996?
