Delhi Gymkhana Club served show cause notice in eviction proceedings; asked to explain why it should not be evicted by July 7

The Union Government has escalated eviction proceedings against the Delhi Gymkhana Club, issuing a show cause notice under the Public Premises Act. The government alleges the club is an unauthorized occupant of the 27.3-acre property after its perpetual lease was terminated for public purpose. The club must respond by July 7, 2026, or face potential ex parte eviction orders. The land is reportedly needed for defence and public infrastructure projects.
