Madhya Pradesh High Court Rejects Execution of 24-Year-Old Arbitral Award Citing Limitation Period
The Madhya Pradesh High Court rejected an execution petition for a nearly 24-year-old arbitral award related to a land dispute, citing the 12-year limitation period under the Limitation Act. Justice Vinay Saraf set aside a Barwani court order that had allowed execution proceedings initiated in 2024. The dispute began with a 1989 civil suit referred to arbitration, with the award issued in 2000. Earlier court rulings addressed jurisdiction and procedural issues, but the High Court ruled the enforcement was time-barred.
