Municipalities
Parallel to the rural level local government there exists an urban local body for urban areas. These are referred to as municipal committees for smaller towns and municipal corporations for larger cities. These bodies comprise elected members from different wards and an elected head. The elected head is called municipal chairman in the case of municipal chairman and mayor in the case of mayor. It also includes a government official called the Municipal Executive officer or Municipal Commissioner.
This new system of local government is one of the largest experiments in democracy and can be conducted in any part of the world. The constitutional status of the local government has helped in the deepening of democracy in our country and also increased the participation of women and the representation of their voices in a democracy.
