Delhi Gymkhana Club member, staff move Delhi High Court against government’s eviction move

The applications have been filed in the already pending suits by Gymkhana member Vijay Khurana and another by the Club’s staff welfare association. The Estate Officer of the Land & Development Office (L&DO) this week issued show cause notice to Gymkhana after Central government filed a plea seeking their eviction. The two suits pending before the High Court challenge government's earlier order to vacate the premises. While hearing the pleas in May, the High Court had refused to pass any interim orders against the directive. This came after Solicitor General (SG) Tushar Mehta informed the Bench that any eviction action would be taken only after due notice.
