Ambala division is one of the six divisions of the state of Haryana, India. The division comprises the districts of Ambala, Kurukshetra, Panchkula and Yamunanagar.[1][2][3]
There have been efforts to merge the Ambala division into the Punjab province as the division has a Punjabi-speaking community. After the rearrangement of East Punjab into three states, Punjab, Haryana, and Himachal Pradesh, in the 1960s, Ambala was given to the state of Haryana despite having a genuinely Punjabi-speaking population, which resulted in protests led by Punjabis.[4]: 371
