1. JustAct Model Negotiation Clause
The parties shall endeavour to resolve any dispute arising out of or in connection with anything contained in the Agreement or otherwise by negotiation through JustAct, [www.justact.co.in] within 30 (thirty days) of its occurrence or such extended time as may be mutually agreed by the parties.
The Institution shall, among other things, appoint a neutral Mediator/Conciliator and provide a platform for settlement of dispute between the parties as per the negotiation Rules of the Institution. The settlement agreement resulting from the negotiation shall be provided in the form of a Conciliation Award as per section 74 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996.
Should this clause create a contradiction with a statutory requirement or a judicial mandate to resolve certain types of disputes through specific courts, the statutory requirement shall prevail.
