Centre says no plan to change Chandigarh governance structure

New Delhi: The Central Government has clarified that a proposal aimed at simplifying the Centre’s law-making process for the Union Territory of Chandigarh is still under consideration and no final decision has been made.

Officials said the proposal does not seek to alter Chandigarh’s governance or administrative structure, nor does it intend to change the long-standing arrangements between Chandigarh and the states of Punjab or Haryana.

They added that any decision will be taken only after thorough consultations with all stakeholders while keeping Chandigarh’s interests in mind.

The Centre also said there is no need for concern, adding that it has no intention of introducing any such Bill in the upcoming Winter Session of Parliament.
