Haryana will get Chandigarh; Punjab may well claim Lahore, Shimla: Hooda | ummid.com
"I wonder on what basis they (Punjab) are staking a claim on Chandigarh, as initially Chandigarh was a part of Ambala. They are claiming Chandigarh on the basis of Chandigarh being the capital of the erstwhile Punjab. If that is the basis of their argument, then Lahore and Shimla too have been the capitals of Punjab. Why don't they stake a claim on Lahore and Shimla also?" Hooda asked.
