TRAVEL INFO ABOUT JALANDHAR (PUNJAB - INDIA) CITY TELEPHONE CODE 181

I HAVE NOTICED THAT PEOPLE FROM U.S.A, U.K & CANADA ETC. ARE LOOKING FOR INFO ABOUT JALANDHAR. I HAVE PUT SOME PIECES OF GENERAL INFO ABOUT JALANDHAR HERE. HOPE IT MIGHT HELP SOMEONE.

The cities of Punjab are famous for different things. Jalandhar is famous for Sports Goods, Leather Goods, Hand Tools, Oldest Military Cantonment, PAP and BSF Head Quarters, as a ocean of newspaper publications & of course beautiful Dulhan's too. This city has twelve kots and twelve gates. Jalandhar is the biggest printing centre of Northern India and most of the newspapers, magazines in Hindi, Punjabi and Urdu are published here. The well known newspapers are Hind Samachar, Punjab Kesri, Jag Bani, Partap & Veer Partap, Ajit, Akali Patrika, Nawan Zamana and Milap.

Jalandhar is situated at a distance of approximately 375Kms from International Airport Delhi. From the Airport one can catch a Train or a Bus to reach Jalandhar. Recently I’ve heard from someone that a Luxury Bus Service by (INDO CANADIAN TPT.CO.) has been started from Jalandhar to the Airport, which has proved to be good service. I don;t have any photograph of the bus at the moment but while talking to someone I assume the bus looks like this. The Bus fare is around Rs.1500-2000 one way. The buses start from Hotel INTERNATIONAL around 10:00AM onwards ..., which is situated close to the Jalandhar Bus Stand on the G.T.Road by the Railway crossing. Even they have loaders who will load on/off your luggage from the bus. One of my friends recently traveled by this bus & gave a good feed back. Isn’t it good news!

While surfing I found a very useful site : Indian Railways Online Passenger Reservation can be viewed at : www.indianrail.gov.in
