In terms of Section 5 of the said Act, to ensure autonomy of the arbitrator, courts are not permitted to intervene in domestic arbitration except to the extent specifically provided in the Act.
Even if the arbitrator overrules the objections taken on the ground of non-existence or invalidity of the arbitration agreement or on the allegation of bias or partiality of the arbitrator, the arbitration proceedings would continue uninterrupted until an award is made. However, in the post award stage the aggrieved party would be entitled to re agitate those objections overruled in his application to the court for setting aside the arbitral award.
Under Section 9 of the said Act, the jurisdictional Court can direct interim measures of protection when there is an arbitration agreement between any time before arbitration until prior to enforcement or execution of the award.
Under Section 14 of the said Act, on the application of any party the court can remove an arbitrator when he has become unable to perform his functions or is unable to act without unreasonable delay.
Under Section 34 of the said Act, the aggrieved party can challenge the award in the jurisdictional court.
Under Section 36 the award holder can seek enforcement of the award in the jurisdictional court.
