Mohali turns 50, Chandigarh 59 but neither celebrates
This November 1 marks Chandigarh's 59th foundation day and Mohali's 50th. Yet, neither city is celebrating. There are no speeches, no civic events and no public reflection. That silence tells its own story - of how Chandigarh and Mohali, born nearly a decade apart, have taken diverging paths. One carefully planned but stagnating, the other chaotic yet booming.
