CHANDIGARH: Amid huge uproar, the municipal corporation (MC) general house gave a nod for complete Union Territory (UT) status to Chandigarh with its own Vidhan Sabha, so that there was no interference from Punjab and Haryana. The house resolved that assembly should be constituted in Chandigarh to enable people to decide about the policies and future and the Centre should intervene and direct Haryana and Punjab governments to develop their own independent capitals.
Political parties urged the Centre to grant complete independence to Chandigarh. The councillors asked the city MP to move a private bill in this regard in Parliament.
