Everybody jokes about Chandigarh sectors at some point.
At first they can feel clinical, like the city was filed into drawers before anyone got to live in it properly.
Then time passes and something changes.
You stop seeing numbers alone. You start seeing your school sector, your favorite food sector, your errand sector, your aimless-drive sector, your memory sector.
The map gets emotional without ever looking emotional.
That is Chandigarh’s trick. It turns order into attachment slowly.
One day you realize the very thing that felt impersonal is now part of how you remember your life.
Which Chandigarh sector became yours for reasons that still make sense only to you?
