A Municipal Corporation is a local self-governing body responsible for administering urban areas, providing civic amenities, and managing city infrastructure within its jurisdiction.
Key functions include water supply, sanitation, road construction and maintenance, public health, waste management, street lighting, building regulation, and urban planning services.
They are primarily funded through property taxes, professional taxes, entertainment taxes, various fees, and grants from state governments.
A Municipal Corporation is typically headed by an elected Mayor, who is the ceremonial head, while the Municipal Commissioner, an appointed bureaucrat, manages the daily administration.
