Members of the influential Gymkhana Club, located at a stone’s throw from Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s residence, are an unhappy lot. A recent circular issued by the ministry of environment and forests has banned party-goers in its spacious lawns from playing music after 10.p.m.

But knowing his reputation for fair play, they finally gave up on the idea.
