Haryana Regional Chapter of the Institute of Town Planners, India

The Institute of Town Planners, India owes its origin to a small group of town planners in Delhi who, in 1947, set out to establish a professional planning institute on the lines of the Royal Town Planning Institute, London. With barely six planners at the time, the group first formed the Indian Board of Town Planners and worked steadily toward a registered professional body.

Three years on, with membership grown to about fifteen, the Board finalised the Memorandum, Articles of Association and Bye‑laws — and the Institute of Town Planners, India was born. The Haryana Regional Chapter followed in 2003, and its own chapter building in Sector 2, Panchkula was completed in October 2006.
