Chandigarh, Nov.23, 2025:-Aam Aadmi Party Chandigarh strongly opposes the Central Government's decision to alter the powers and administrative character of Chandigarh. This step is a direct attack on the identity, autonomy and democratic sentiments of the people of Chandigarh.

Vijaypal Singh, President – Aam Aadmi Party Chandigarh, stated that the administrative structure of Chandigarh has always remained strong because officers coming on deputation from Punjab and Haryana had deep local understanding and direct connection with the people, their issues and ground realities.

He added that due to this local sensitivity, administrative decisions were transparent, efficient and focused on public welfare.

But now, if officers are appointed directly by the Central Government who have no connection with Punjab, no link with Haryana and no understanding of Chandigarh's ground realities  the direct relationship between administration and citizens will collapse, along with people's trust.

Then administration comes under complete control of Delhi and the local touch is eliminated, the unique identity and character of Chandigarh will lose its meaning.

Aam Aadmi Party believes that This decision will hollow out the democratic structure of Chandigarh.

First, the same approach was used in the Punjab University matter, and now an attempt is being made to take direct control over Chandigarh Administration as well.

Imposing decisions without listening to the public and bypassing elected representatives is an insult to democracy.

Aam Aadmi Party Chandigarh strongly opposes this move and demands that the Central Government respect the rights, culture and administrative independence of Chandigarh.

Chandigarh is not just a piece of land, it is an emotion, and we will not allow it to be destroyed.
