Control of Delhi Gymkhana Club has been settled with GoI taking it over lock, stock and barrel by June 5. While it's at it, it might as well take a look at all other such elite clubs where nepotism is more rampant and real estate is often bigger and more valuable.
Every major city in India has such clubs. Most of the better-known ones are relics of the Raj and were meant as a private place for the ruling elite to socialise and fraternise. Being the ruling elite, they gave themselves tracts of public land for their private enjoyment. At a time when the whole country was for their private enjoyment, this raised few questions.
