Mulanpur, Chandigarh, Chandigarh

Mullanpur, commonly known as New Chandigarh, is a planned township in Sahibzada Ajit Singh Nagar district, Punjab, on the northern side of Chandigarh. It is being developed as an urban extension of Chandigarh, with residential neighbourhoods, institutional areas, healthcare facilities and sports infrastructure. The township is associated with two major landmarks: Maharaja Yadavindra Singh International Cricket Stadium, also known as the New Chandigarh cricket stadium, and Homi Bhabha Cancer Hospital, a specialist cancer treatment centre established by the Tata Memorial Centre. These facilities are important reference points within the wider New Chandigarh development. Road connectivity is provided by the Kurali–Chandigarh Road and the network of planned roads connecting the township with Chandigarh and surrounding parts of the Mohali region. Routes towards Kharar, Kurali and Chandigarh link New Chandigarh with nearby urban centres, while access to other parts of the Tricity depends on the specific sector and route. The area is also connected to the wider region through Chandigarh’s road network, although residents should check current routes and construction conditions when planning journeys. Residential development includes plotted housing, independent houses, villas, low-rise apartments and larger residential projects. DLF Hyde Park Estate is one of the established project names associated with New Chandigarh. Development patterns vary across the township, with some neighbourhoods featuring completed homes and others forming part of ongoing development. The mix of residential properties and planned institutional areas gives the locality a different layout from Chandigarh’s older, established sectors. Educational institutions in and around the area include Guru Arjan Dev Public School, Air Force School Mullanpur and Strawberry International School. The wider Chandigarh region provides access to additional schools, colleges and universities. Healthcare is another defining feature of the township, with Homi Bhabha Cancer Hospital and the broader Medicity area forming a significant medical hub. Residents can also access larger hospitals and specialist institutions in Chandigarh and Mohali. For shopping, dining and entertainment, people can travel to commercial centres in Chandigarh and neighbouring parts of the Tricity, including Elante Mall and the markets around Sector 17. Local amenities vary by residential pocket, so access to everyday shops, public transport and established commercial areas depends on the specific address. New Chandigarh is an evolving planned township where residential construction, institutional development, healthcare and sports facilities are shaping the area's urban landscape.
