Dube & Co. dated 20.5 76. A copy of the statement of claim filed by Sharma before the alleged arbitrator Bhagwandas on 20.3.76 was also reduced in Court,The existence of these documents as admitted by the parties. Going through the correspondence, I find that Maheswari was asking Sharma to act in accordance with the terms of the deed of dissolution but Sharma was not willing to do so. On the contrary, by his letter dated 20.3.76, written through Dube & Co., Sharma raised certain disputes concerning the terms of the deed of dissolution. By that letter, Sharma alleged that by a subsequent oral agreement between the parties, Maheswari had agreed that Room No. 16/3, which was intended to be transferred to him in his personal name under the deed of dissolution, should not be given effect to and that room should remain in the name of the firm M/s. Tools & Bearing Centre. Sharma demanded that Maheswari should deliver back vacant possession of that room to Sharma in accordance with the subsequent oral agreement. Sharma raised these disputes and., referred the matter to one Bhagwandas as his arbitrator to adjudicate upon the said disputes.
