Arbitration issue

No, you cannot deny the arbitration clause. Once artbitration clause is there, you have to follow it.  There is no scope for Consumer case. 

You have to submit yourself to Arbitrator and His proceedings. courts are hving supervisory powers and you cannot stop the arbitration proceedings because you opt for consumer court. In point of fact the consumer court may direct you to Arbitration when there is a specific arbitration clasue. The court can direct you to arbitration.

If the builder is abstianing himself without reason without leave of Hon.Arbitrator, Arbitrator is having pwoer to give his verdict/award ex-parte.

Thus better you attend arbitration and present your case you will get justice much more expeditious manner than other courts
