National Insurance Co. Ltd vs Sujir Ganesh Nayak & Co. & Anr on 21 March, 1997
An objection has been raised by the
objector/MCD is with regard to the limitation. It has been
vehemently argued by the Ld. counsel appearing on behalf of
the objector/ MCD that the Ld. Arbitrator has failed to
appreciate that the liability of the objector MCD qua the
respondent contractor was discharged on the expiry of 90
days in terms of the provisions set out in the Arbitration
Agreement contained under clause 25. It is argued that the
invocation of the arbitration as well as the claims filed by the
claimant were barred by time as per the provisions of Clause
25 of the Agreement since as per the terms and conditions of
the Arbitration Clause 25 the claimant has to make the
demand for appointment of the Arbitrator and he has to
26
invoke the arbitration in writing within 90 days. It is argued
that in the present case the completion of work is disputed by
the MCD and the Vigilance Department is already
investigating the matter as to how entries have been entered
into the measurement books without SLF receipts,
videography and photography and the Commissioner MCD
vide letter dated 9.10.2002 through the Additional Director
Vigilance ordered that no further payment in the year 2000
2001 and 20012002 relating to desilting of drains by CSE
Division should not be made till such investigations are
completed. It is argued that as per the respondent no. 1 the
work was completed in June - July 2000 and therefore, the
respondent no. 1 should have invoked the Arbitration within
90 days and having invoked the same in the year 2005 which
was much beyond the special period agreed by the parties,
the arbitration is beyond the period of limitation even as per
the law of limitation. The Ld. counsel appearing on behalf
of the objector has placed his reliance in the case of Wild
Life Institute of India Vs. Vijay Kumar Garg reported in
27
1997 (10) SCC 528 and in the case of National Insurance
Co. Vs. Sujir Nayak & Co. reported in AIR 1997 SC 2049.
