India, Nov. 23 -- Punjab BJP chief Sunil Jakhar asserted that Chandigarh is an "integral part of Punjab," assuring that any "confusion" over the Centre's move will be resolved through discussions.

Jakhar, who previously led the state Congress, emphasized on X that Punjab's interests will remain a priority, even if it means differing from his party's central leadership.

"Chandigarh is an integral part of Punjab, and the Punjab BJP stands firmly with the interests of the state whether it is the issue of Chandigarh or the waters of Punjab. Whatever confusion has arisen regarding Chandigarh will be resolved by discussing it with the government. As a Punjabi myself, I assure you that for us, Punjab always comes first," he posted on X.
