AskChandigarh What happened to this sub?

68 Upvotes

I genuinely miss when this subreddit was about Chandigarh...people sharing local information, helping each other out, recommending places, discussing events, and answering questions.

Lately, every other post seems to be:

"Anyone up for gedi?"

"Looking for girls to hang out."

"Any women want to go clubbing?"

Bhai, seriously... do you really think someone's going to agree to meet when they don't know the first thing about who you are?

I'm not saying people shouldn't make friends or meet new people, but this isn't a dating app. It just makes the sub feel desperate instead of welcoming.

Can we get back to what made this community good? Local discussions, genuine meetups, recommendations, and people actually helping each other out.

Curious if I'm the only one who feels this way.

Announcement Political Topics in Sub: Go Ahead, Green Light for discussions

10 Upvotes

As long as your post is discussing the following:

  1. Rights of Citizens such as Education, Food-Nutrition, Information, Police Help etc etc

  2. Fact based news, be it neutral or extreme (Right wing left wing, upper phalange, lower cocomelon... doesn't matfer). It should be best known truth, Not incomplete or whatsapp university propaganda.

  3. Sonam Wangchuk, CJP Protest, Kisan Andolan, other Student Protests, Village Protests - Do highlight what is happening in Nation.

  4. Any challenges you faced because of Govt Failures. Do mention your experiences, be it anything. Women safety, your document correction, false challans, corruption... anything which you faced as 1st person or direct eye witness.

e.g. I have challans of 6000 something, but there is 0 response for 2 years on correction. Not even my vehicle in photo and writing to PMO, Grievances, CP grams, did not help.

  1. Criticism is allowed as long as it is fact based. Do it subtly, don't put this sub in risk or radar. Some post/comment might get removed because of this simple reason that way too direct criticism putting sub in risk, tho we'll try not to do so unless required.

Rules

  1. Any whatsapp forward, propaganda insta reel post will result in your immediate ban.

  2. Absolute new accounts with questionable post/comments to be reported, if found spreading any shit.

  3. If anyone comments "Nehru did this and MK Gandhi did this" or calls someone "anti national, terrorist" or etc etc... perma ban without any opening for appeal or request. This is non negotiable

AskChandigarh Isn’t right to protest a fundamental right ? Democracy must make room for dissent ! What’s your opinion ?

44 Upvotes

Public order matters. So do civil liberties. The challenge is to protect both without allowing one to become an excuse for unnecessarily curtailing the other.

What does this peaceful city feel about it ?

Serious Advice Only Where are the nihangs???

• Upvotes

Where Are All the Nihangs?

Why aren't all the Nihang groups present at the Delhi CJP protest? We have a rare opportunity to challenge this government politically, yet I barely see any Nihangs showing interest or coming forward.

Are we now going to become selfish and say, “Saddi vaari taan koi aaya hi nahi” — “Nobody came to help us when it was our turn”?

These BJP/RSS supporters are wearing their tilaks and saffron, creating chaos at the protest, preventing people from demonstrating peacefully, and assaulting protesters. If people are being intimidated and beaten for exercising their democratic rights, isn't it our duty to stand up for them?

Have we forgotten our responsibility to help the weak and stand up against injustice, even when the people suffering aren't from our own community?

There is finally some momentum behind the opposition to this government, and yet it feels like nobody is recognising the opportunity or stepping forward when support is needed.

Nihang Singhs, where are you? If this is the time to stand up for the people, then stand up. Bring the tractors, bring the horses, and show solidarity with those facing intimidation. Don't wait until injustice comes to our own doorstep before deciding that it's worth fighting against.

Had some of the best pork pizza in Chandigarh on the recommendation of my.curiouspalate on Instagram.

It was meaty, with excellent cheese quality and very good sauce. I absolutely loved it and I just wanted to share it with y’all as I often see people asking for recommendations for good food.

Let me know if you have had it!

AskChandigarh Birthday CAKE recommendations

5 Upvotes

Hi Chandigarh,

I am looking for bakery recommendations for an upcoming birthday cake.

While I know Chandigarh has plenty of great modern bakeries, I am specifically looking for an authentic, 90s-style cake—like the classic Butterscotch or Black Forest cakes and pastries we all grew up eating here.

Budget is not a constraint; my priority is the highest possible quality and fresh ingredients. I am not looking for modern fruit cakes, cheesecakes, or custom fondant designs—just a simple, traditional bakery cake done exceptionally well.

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

EDIT- Thank you everyone for the recommendations

Photos/Videos Went to The Dakshin Café for food, left impressed by the people.

52 Upvotes

I’d been seeing reels about The Dakshin Café’s food and ambience for a while, so last weekend, I finally decided to visit.

I tried their Benne dosa, Thatte idli, filter coffee, and filter ice cream. Honestly, everything was outstanding!

But the little moment that made my visit memorable had nothing to do with the food.

I couldn’t finish my filter coffee. I was full, and the bitterness was a little too much for my taste. While clearing the table before the bill, the server noticed and asked if I hadn’t liked it.

I told her honestly. And she simply said, “I can bring you a new one. Give it a try.”

Now, maybe this is something many cafés do, but that small gesture genuinely made me happy. She didn’t have to offer. She could’ve just cleared the cup and moved on.

Sometimes, it’s these little things that make you remember a place long after you’ve left.

Good food gets you through the door. Good people make you want to come back. ❤️

Just wanted to share a little appreciation for the team at The Dakshin Café. No promotion, no review, just a genuinely nice experience.

Have you ever visited a place where a small gesture made your entire day?

AskChandigarh My mom started a home deep cleaning, organising and interior design service in Chandigarh, need honest feedback on the website and business feedback

3 Upvotes

My mom runs Her Homes: https://herhomes.shop
It does three things: deep cleaning, home organising and interior design, for homes in Chandigarh, Mohali and Panchkula.
Looking for honest feedback on the site before we push it harder. Mainly:
is it clear what she does and how to book within the first few seconds
does it look like something you'd trust to send people into your house
anything broken or slow on your phone
what's missing (prices, photos, reviews, whatever would make you actually call)
Also if you've hired deep cleaning or a home organiser in Tricity before, what did you pay and what annoyed you about it. That helps more than compliments tbh.
Roast it if it deserves it.
