    The High Court of Uttarakhand directed the respondent PWD department to appoint its arbitrator within two weeks, rejecting the department's pretext that work incompleteness and alleged dues justified refusing arbitrator appointment. The court held such disputes are proper subjects for arbitration and cannot prevent initiating the process. The application was disposed after the department complied by appointing K.P. Joshi as arbitrator; both arbitrators must now appoint a presiding arbitrator for the tribunal to commence proceedings.
