CHANDIGARH is the shared capital city of both Punjab and Haryana, two farming states in northern India, many of the state government offices are located there. To replace Lahore, which became part of Pakistan during British Partition in 1947, the Indian Punjab required a new capital city. So Jawaharlal Nehru, the first prime minister of independent India, commissioned a new ‘planned’ city, designed by French architect and urban planner Le Corbusier in the 1950s. When India’s Punjab was separated in 1966, the city of Chandigarh — on the border of Punjab and Haryana — became a union territory to serve as capital of both states. Le Corbusier’s design included plenty of green spaces and art parks, helping to propel Chandigarh to a cultural capital for both Punjab and Harayana.

⭐Punjab and Haryana both have same capital that is Chandigarh.
⭐At the time of reorganisation of Punjab in 1966, the city assumed the unique distinction of being the capital of both Punjab and Haryana, even as it was declared a union territory and was placed under the direct control of the Centre. ... But Punjab has always refuted Haryana's claims over Chandigarh
