About conference

With all-round developments taking place in India, major projects, particularly infrastructure projects and mega projects are being implemented in different parts of the country. Developmental projects also accompany various disputes. In spite of one’s best efforts to avoid disputes, the disputes have become part and parcel of their contractual relationship. In order to complete projects without cost or time overrun, suitable mechanism should be in place to resolve disputes as and when they arise.
The amended Arbitration and Conciliation Act,1996has raised much hope which promises to be effective tool for speedy and cost effective dispute resolution besides facilitating implementation of foreign awards. This augurs well for raising the level of ease of doing business in the country thus paving way for attracting more Foreign Direct Investments. India, where numbers of projects by MNC’s are going on, has the potential of becoming the hub of International Arbitration. The hurdles if any in this context have to be identified and removed. The Conference is organised to address these problems, besides updating knowledge on the subject and hone the skills of practising and aspiring ADR.
