NEW ASSEMBLY BUILDING FOR HRY

CHANDIGARH : Amid the row over an additional assembly building for Haryana here, Chandigarh administra­tor and Punjab governor Banwarilal Purohit on Thursday said no one-sided decision will be taken on the matter and Punjab will be taken into confidence.

At the Northern Zone Council meeting in Jaipur in July, Union home minister Amit Shah had announced land in Chandigarh for setting up the additional building for the Haryana assembly, kicking off a political storm in Punjab that always claims Chandigarh is its inalienabl­e part. At present, Punjab and Haryana share the Vidhan Sabha building in Chandigarh, the joint capital of both states.
