What an idea???!!!--Bhadani 5 July 2005 02:37 (UTC)

• Hi, doesn't anyone have any pictures of any landmark they can upload? I have uploaded the two pictures I have...not showing any tandmark though...I dont live in Jalandhar, so I'm not able to take any pictures...was just visitning my Taja-ji :) Dhirad 5 July 2005 02:37 (UTC)

Can somebody explain what the word "Cantonment" means? Gaius Cornelius 18:48, 20 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Cantoment means a permanent military camp, often used in India also called "cant" in short Dhirad Januar 14 2005 02:19 (UTC)

Thanks for clearing that up. I found a wiki link too: Cantonment. About 10 years ago I was in the city of Pune near an area I was told was called Poona Camp, I guess that was an example of a Cantonment. Gaius Cornelius 13:30, 14 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yup, kindly advise on which particular landmarks you would want...I am a hobbyist photographer and would be more than happy to be of service--Today's mighty oak is just yesterday's nut, which held its ground 13:34, 15 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If you can take photos of any/all landmarks in Jalandhar that'd be great. You can upload them to the Wikmedia Commons! Sukh | ਸੁਖ | Talk 11:42, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I want to see a photo of Devi Talab Kali temple. Would anyone help? VMO 13:30, 21 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Have also added in Article's External Links, I hope jalandharphotos.blogspot.com is worthy enough of mention--Today's mighty oak is just yesterday's nut, which held its ground 15:14, 23 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I am (attempting) to bring order to Jalandhar page by categorizing educational institutions, hotels etc because now it appears that only a few hotels are receiving (free and biased) exposure...Views of senior editors and experts of Punjab are welcome.--Today's mighty oak is just yesterday's nut, which held its ground 03:24, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I've removed all hotels. Hotels should only be included if they are especially notable. Sukh | ਸੁਖ | Talk 11:42, 16 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yup, I think that was long overdue.Today's mighty oak is just yesterday's nut, which held its ground 16:59, 15 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I believe it is a situation similar to the hotels (discussed above), maybe, trying for free exposure and reputation of Wikipedia.info to be passed onto it.

I am removing it- Senior Editors and Experts of Punjab, kindly see--The world salutes the Rising Star...Try to be One 12:52, 3 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Those Pictures don't reflect Jalandhar at all whoever uploaded them should delete them and put some pics the various chowks or other city landmarks i.e city centre around Raddison hotel or the T.V. tower etc. fish market is not Jalandhar it looks like any other ally in Punjab.

I agree and adding a few photographs shot within the past few months around Jalandhar...kindly evaluate the merit and placement within the text--The world salutes the Rising Star...Try to be One 13:13, 14 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The picture titled BMC chowk shows a street and some vehicles. Please upload the actual picture of the BMC roundabout. Also there are no pictures of the Cantt. The photo that says lush greenery is actually of a waterlogged street. Please upload some nice pictures. Also the BUS stand looks completely different now, the picture is irrelevant.

update- BMC Chowk roundabout has been removed and now in its place is a system to timer traffic signals

yes, the Bus Stand image needs to be updated, I'll see if I can arrange one quickly, if other fellow Jalandharis can too, wonderful...

updated the BMC Chowk photo:)

perhaps this city's numerous mentions in goodness gracious me should be noted? SleweD 16:07, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

if we can link to a reference, then in my opinion it should be mentioned--Nothing is free in this world (talk) 17:47, 29 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
