Patel Engineering Ltd. and Anr.,<\/a> 2006 (1) ALD 10 (SC) : 2005 (1) Decisions Today (SC) 105 (LB), wherein it was held that the order of the Chief Justice either appointing an Arbitrator or rejecting the application filed under Section 11 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, has to be challenged only before the Apex Court the same being a judicial order. The Apex Court also made it explicitly clear that the above judgment would come into effect from 26-10-2005.\n<\/p>\n<p>3. In view of the judgment of the Apex Court in M\/s. S.B.P. and Co.
