Army Black Elephant Golf Club
An 18-hole army course at "Army Benefit Park" in Patiala's military area, documented almost entirely through a golf-directory listing (which also carries an obviously wrong postal code — a Gurgaon PIN — so its data should be treated cautiously) plus an entry in a user-scorecard database under "Army golf course BETA, Patiala", which is very likely the same facility. What "BETA" stands for is not stated in any source found: given the Army's own convention, quoted in the CAG report ("Golf Courses would be named as Army Environmental Park and Training Area"), an EPTA-style expansion is the obvious reading, but no published expansion was found, so none is asserted here. The directory lists a driving range, putting green, teaching pro, rentals and a restaurant. Independently of the directories, the CAG's 2010 audit of defence land tabulates a golf course at Patiala station of 150.00 acres as of August 2009, which corroborates that an Army course exists here but says nothing about its name, size or current state. Par, yardage and any access terms remain unpublished, and no signal from 2025 or later was found.
