Dadar Parsi Colony gymkhana does not accept boy's membership application

Dadar Parsi Colony Gymkhana
The Dadar Parsi Colony Gymkhana management has landed in the middle of a controversy over a membership demand of 36-year-old Sanaya Dalal for her son, who has a half Parsi father. The authorities concerned have refused to provide Dalal's son membership since they say that the club's rules doesn't allow non-Parsis to be members. On the other hand, the management is considering a proposal to increase the number of days for which spouses and kids of Parsi members are allowed to visit the club.
All of it started when Dalal's five-year-old son wanted to participate in the club activities with his friends, who are members, but couldn't due to the rules. Dalal's husband is a part Parsi, as his mother is a Parsi but father a Sindhi.
