The Bandra Gymkhana has come under fire from a housing society for flouting civic norms and safety regulations. A report in this paper detailed how residents of the Princess Co-operative Housing Society on D'Monte Road have accused the club of obstructing a passage next to the society premises with illegal alterations. These include a shed with a tandoor chimney and electrical connection.

The report added that residents said a washing area has been created in the passage, with this same passage converted to a storage area. Gas cylinders have been kept outside. There is a stink permeating the area as dustbins with leftovers have been left open without lids. The club, on its part, denied any wrongdoing and has asked different authorities to come in and check if there is any truth to the accusations. Pictures accompanying the report show at least some of the allegations to be true.
