WHY CHANDIGARH DESERVES TO BE SAVED
When
a new city, howsoever meticulously planned, becomes a living entity,
certain changes inevitably occur. The felt-needs change the original
design mandate and many new factors emerge that could never have been
foreseen, much less provided for. In myriad ways, a city design moulds
the civic life and pattern of living, and exerts considerable
formative influence on social attitudes and lifestyles. However, as
the living community takes root and attains its ambience, spatial
relationships change. Chandigarh is no exception, observes Sayed
