"In connection with the Arbitration Award issued on May 11, 2017 regarding the Delhi Airport Metro Express Line, the DMRC has decided to seek legal remedies under the Arbitration Act, 1996 and have decided to file an objection petition before the High Court of Delhi on this matter under Section 34 of the Arbitration Act," said DMRC spokesperson Anuj Dayal.

It said the compensation was awarded to its subsidiary Delhi Airport Metro Express (DAMEPL) through a unanimous decision of the three-member tribunal which was constituted from a panel nominated by the DMRC.
