Dear Reader,
Greetings from Centre for Alternative Dispute Resolution (CADR), Rajiv Gandhi National University of Law, Punjab.
We hope that you and your loved ones continue to remain well and safe.
The Ninth Issue of the Second Volume of the CADR Newsletter is now out.
As we enter the eighth month since the World Health Organization (WHO) declared SARS-CoV-2 as a global pandemic, we are humbled to note that the ADR community has marched on in its indomitable quest to resolve and adjudicate disputes across the world.
The People’s Republic of China recently published a policy paper allowing foreign arbitral institutions to set up shop in Beijing, the Supreme Court of India settled the law on limitation to enforce foreign awards in India and the High Court of Jammu & Kashmir has decided to set up an international arbitration centre with offices in both Srinagar and Jammu.
Additionally, the Permanent Court of Arbitration (PCA) ruled in favour of Vodafone and against the Indian Government, holding it in violation of the Fair and Equitable Standard (FET) under the Netherlands-India Bilateral Investment Treaty (BIT), the watershed Singapore Convention on Mediation and the Japan-Singapore Convention on Mediation came into force. All this and more in the September Issue of the Newsletter!
Each volume follows a vigorous process of compilation and is vetted twice – including by industry professionals. For more information on how we create the Newsletter, you may check our Note.
The Newsletter initiative began with the observation that there exists a lacuna in the provision of information relating to ADR to the practicing community, and we wanted to provide a solution to the same. In keeping with that, we are glad to have many practitioners and students subscribe to the Newsletter and the Blog after the launch of the first issue.
To subscribe to the CADR Newsletter, you may send us an email at adrc@rgnul.ac.in. Additionally, you may subscribe to the CADR Blog via our homepage and you will receive a notification whenever we launch a volume of the Newsletter.
As always, we await with bated breath for your feedback on our Newsletter. We hope to hear from you soon! For any other query, please feel free to contact us. For more information about our activities, please follow/like us on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and our Blog.
Regards, Nikita Aggarwal, Permanent Managing Editor, Newsletter Centre for Alternative Dispute Resolution.
