Upanayana (Janeu) Sanskar in Chandigarh: Local Traditions

Chandigarh takes its name from the Chandi Mandir in neighbouring Panchkula, and together with Mohali and Panchkula it forms the Tricity. The planned sectors hold government employees, retired officers and Punjabi and Haryanvi families, while Zirakpur and New Chandigarh add fresh high rise housing.

The Mata Mansa Devi Mandir draws huge crowds during both Navratris, and Devi bhakti runs through the local puja calendar: Mata ki Chowki and Jagran are booked for weddings, birthdays and new homes. Pandits here also handle Punjabi wedding rites, Karva Chauth, Lohri celebrations and Griha Pravesh in the newer townships.
