Mediation council: A key missing link in commercial dispute reforms
Mint Hyderabad|December 26, 2024
Mid a growing policy push for mediation, legal practitioners have pushed for the urgent formation of a council comprising experts and policymakers to determine the rules and procedures involved in mediation.

The government planned to set up the Mediation Council of India—crucial to improving the ease of doing business in India—by the end of the year, as Mint reported on 25 June. But while certain aspects of the MCI, such as salaries, have been notified by the government, the council hasn't been established yet.
