    One of the grounds for challenging the validity of an arbitral award under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, is if the award is in conflict with the public policy of India. Public policy is a broad and flexible concept that includes principles of morality and justice. If an arbitral award violates fundamental principles of public policy, it can be set aside by the court.
