Panchkula is cool, Chandigarh Sector 17 is boring. Load these in your Winamp!



It’s been sometime now that I have been in Panchkula. And living in a city this peaceful and clean has been a pleasure. Not that I am someone who do a lot of driving around but it really is a nice place to live in.

And talking about Chandigarh, Sector 17 is supposedly THE hottest place to be in the town. So, there I went on this Sunday evening to this supposedly the place to be. It was 8:30 in the evening, and the place, well it was deserted. Not many shops were open, people were far and few. Balls. You tell a guy who used to spend his weekend nights in Delhi partying (and boozing to some extent) that Chandigarh Sector 17 is hot? You must be nuts. And the motion picture being shown on the movie theatre was PLAN. God help. Spiderman? Delhi , I am coming.

    any place which becomes dead after 9 pm would disappoint me… and from what i saw chandigarh was practically a dead city after 9 pm.

    hi guys. i agree with the most people on this forum. The author, without any base, has expessed his views. i have visited chgr once, and its sheer beauty caught me by surprise. and i was thinking that y i didnt live in such a place. The author has written some baseless crap, but lets be polite enough to excuse him of his mistake rather than throwing abuses at him.

    I LOVE BOTH CHANDIGARH AND PANCHKULA BECAUSE I USED TO LIVE THERE AT THE SAME TIME BECAUSE I HAVE MY HOUSES BOTH IN CHANDIGARH AND PANCHKULA. NOW MY HOUSE IS IN PANCHKULA BUT CURRENTLY I M LIVING IN CANADA,TORONTO. I AGREE PANCHKULA IS NICE CITY BUT RATHER IT IS CALM AND QUITE AND NOT MORE CHARMING LIKE SECTOR 17.AND SECOND THING IS OBVIOUS THAT ALL THE MARKETS ARE CLOSED ON SUNDAYS AND GUYS ABOVE ME ARE RIGHT ,COZ IF U VISIT SECTOR 17 ON OTHER DAYS EXCEPT SUNDAYS THEN U WILL COME TO KNOW OW BEAUTIFUL IS SECTOR 17 AND THE WHOLE CHANDIGARH. AND REMAINING THE QUESTION ABOUT PEOPLE NOT ROAMING AT NIGHTS,THEN U SHOULD KNOW THAT CHD IS NOT A METRO CITY LIKE BOMBAY OR KOLKATTA AND RATHER IT IS LITERATE AND RICH CITY SO PEOPLE OVER THERE DO NOT ROAM AT THE NIGHT USELESSLY RATHER THEY HAVE TO DO OTHER USEFUL STUFFS BECAUSE THEIR LIVES ARE ALREADY VERY MUCH BUSY IN STUDIES AND JOB. BUT YEAH SOME USELESS GUYS MIGHT ROAM AT NIGHT COZ THEY ARE USELESS BECAUSE THEY HV NOTHING TO DO.

  13. aashka says:

    look Chandigarh is small city not like metro cities Bombay and kolkatta so obviously it will be different from them. and people living in chd are literate(mostly) thats why they don’t roam at night usually as they have to do other useful stuffs.and second thing is obvious that all the markets are closed on Sunday so you will find nothing over there except the voices of barking dogs! you found one con of Chandigarh and on the basis of that you are blaming whole Chandigarh. you know what Chandigarh is a most beautiful city in the whole India as it has no pollution, is educated and rich. if u visit sector 17 on Mondays to Saturdays then you will come to know how charming it is. although i am living in Canada but i lived in both Chandigarh(13 years) and in panchkula for 3 years so i can very well differentiate between both cities. i agree that pkl is nice city but not more charming than sector 17 of Panchkula.

    Hi Frends!

    I am also a guy born & brought up in Delhi. I must say it’s pleasure living in chandigarh. Nowhere you find such a fresh greenery (Figuratively & Literally). Night life is not there so what! this city has day life full of colours & belongs to Dil wallon ki who see from DIL se.
