Look at the map I posted in Delhi Manali, thats currently the shortest route

It goes trough Morinda, and directly hits Ropar. Hardly any traffic

tanveer, via this banur road, Rupnagar to ambala is just 76 kms, which we did in 1 hr. only.
The route through morinda is approx 91 kms, and the other road through zirakpur is 85 kms.

So Bharat, for this Banur road, you take right from Rajpura? Can you mark on the map where you take right from NH1 after ambala.
I guess this roads meets the Chd/Ropar road at Kharar?

BHARAT · 04-06-09, 12:37 PM

yes, at kharar the road meets to main road. Small segments of this road on kharar side are two lane, and widening work is going on, rest is 4-lane , and borders and devider work is on, but road is very smooth and wide, here is the pic from that road.

tanveer, from the NH-1 / NH-22 Bifurcation point at kingfisher - ambala, you will be at ghaggar river twin bridge on nh-1 at 8.0 kms point, after one more km, and before 100 meters of toll, there is right turn from nh-1. So no need to go to rajpura, which is further 16 kms from there.
