Chandigarh (place, culture, population)

[ishabad]

Simple Question for all the Indians on this form.

Should Chandigarh be a part Punjab India or Haryana India?

Their is no option of it staying as a Union territory

[Trafalgar Law]

Punjab. It's mostly Punjabi culture either which way.

[ishabad]

Why does India not disolve its Union Territory status then and just give it to punjab and find a place for Haryana to have a new capital?

Aren't haryanvis basically punjabi Hindus? Amritsar should be the capital of Punjab

[ishabad]

Yes I sppose haryanvis are. Amritsar could be but Chandigardh has the more Punjabi Culture

Not all haryanavis are basically punjabi hindus(arora clan), almost 18% of population in haryana is of punjabi origin still strong with punjabi culture and identity and settled in haryana after 1947 indo-pak partition, rest 82% haryana population is not related to punjabi culture in any way they are either jaat/scythian origin or aggarwals in big numbers and rest is a mix of all other several castes in brahmins and various others.
