What is an arbitrator?
Arbitration is a domestic forum for the resolution of disputes in Contract Management. An
arbitral award is final with respect to the disputes raised and is enforceable in a Court of Law.
The arbitrator is the person appointed by each department of Railways to resolve internal disputes. To be noted, this is very old system (Railways), and the arbitrator extends his/her services to resolve disputes without taking the court's help.
Arbitrator facilitates department
If a department takes the services of an arbitrator, it has the following advantages:
1. The department is able to get the disputes resolved in less cost
2. The procedure followed under it is very simple and less time taking
3. The matter is resolved within the department itself
4. The verdict is generally considered final, as there remains no scope for appeal
