Recusal triggers Section 15 substitution, not Section 32 termination | Delhi HC on arbitrator withdrawal : Delhi HC
The Delhi HC held that arbitrator recusal creates a vacancy to be filled under Section 15 of the Arbitration & Conciliation Act, not a termination attracting Section 32 remedies. This distinction allows parties to seek appointment of a substitute arbitrator rather than challenging a termination order, preserving the arbitration process.
