Section 6(2)(iv) in Alternative Dispute Resolution and Mediation Rules, 2017
(iv)Normally the court should not send the original record of the case when referring the matter for an Alternative Dispute Resolution forum. However if the case is referred to a Court annexed Mediation Centre which is under the exclusive control and supervision of a Coordinator appointed by the High Court, the original file may be made available wherever necessary. In all other cases it is sufficient to send only the referral order to the Alternative Dispute Resolution Forum.
