Local Bus Adda, Ludhiana

In Ludhiana, the city that is continuously making history, names, especially of places, do not matter much. There are a number of places within the old city, which have assumed new names with the passage of time. One such place here, which has lost its old identity and acquires another, is Local Adda near Laxmi theatre.

The building housing the old local bus stand near the theatre came into existence in the early 70s. As time flied by, the triangular place, which does not measure more than two bighas, could no longer cope with the increasing passenger traffic. Local buses stopped plying from here, but the place continued to be called Local Adda. The Municipal Corporation opened a chest clinic in the building and also rented out some space to a bookshop.

But before the place was converted into the local bus stand, it served as Chandigarh da Adda because the place was only enough for a few buses, which plied between Ludhiana and Chandigarh for most part of the 60s.

Bhadaur House was once known as Jalandhar da Adda as the place served as a stand for the Ludhiana-Jalandhar-Amritsar buses. On the railway-station side of the clock tower was Jagraon da Adda for the Ludhiana-Moga-Ferozepur buses.

Now, the building that once housed Local Adda is being razed to make room for a modern, state-of-the-art multistoried complex to accommodate the city's Fire Bridge Headquarters.
