Delhi Gymkhana Club: Centre tells Delhi High Court eviction will happen only after notice

However, Justice Avneesh Jhingan refused to pass any interim orders against the government's order of May 22. This, after the government said that any eviction action would be taken only after due notice. In view of the statements made by the SG, no further interim directions are called for. The statement is to the effect that the eviction, if so, will be done following a prior notice. At the cost of repetition, the apprehension that the club governing body may hand over the possession of the club is contrary to the stand taken by the club."
