Jurisdiction

The High Court of Punjab and Haryana is the common High Court for the States of Punjab and Haryana and the Union Territory of Chandigarh. It exercises constitutional, writ, appellate, revisional, civil and criminal jurisdiction over Punjab, Haryana and Chandigarh, and hears matters arising from courts and authorities within its territorial jurisdiction.

Areas covered: This is the correct approach for this field. Do not enter individual pincodes because the High Court's territorial jurisdiction is state/UT-wide rather than restricted to particular pincodes. The Punjab Reorganisation Act expressly establishes the common High Court for Punjab, Haryana and Chandigarh and gives it jurisdiction over those territories.
