Sahibzada Ajit Singh Nagar

This is a fairly well known town or small city. Better known as Mohali. I don't believe that this is the name that should be marked on the map now (if it ever was)? There also seem to be competing 'official' names.

Re: Sahibzada Ajit Singh Nagar

The municipal corporation describes itself as Sahibzada Ajit Singh Nagar(Mohali) on the lead sections and then mainly as just Mohali or as SAS Nagar Mohali or variations. So I suggest the display name be reset to Mohali. In all languages as well.

Reverted to Mohali, left the other as an alt_name.
