<p>Announcing this to the media here on Sunday, Association of Concerned and Informed Citizens of Mysore (ACICM) convener M Lakshmana said that the government is reaping no benefit from the club. A fight is on demanding that 139 acres of land of the club has to be utilised for public purpose. <br /><br />The authorities who have taken the said land on lease have been continuing, though the lease period expired 65 months ago. Though the previous deputy commissioner Harsh <br />Gupta made efforts to vacate the land, the then chief minister B S Yeddyurappa had stalled the move issuing a stay on it.<br /><br />Continuing Lakshmana said a petition had also been filed in the high court, but in vain. Now with the change in chief ministership, the stay is also vacated. He demanded the chief minister D V Sadanandagowda to intervene and take measures to vacate the land for either expansion of nearby Zoo or developing a botanical garden on the lines of Ooty.</p>
