Pune Municipal Corporation
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) was established on 15th February 1950.[1] The PMC controls the whole administration of the city. The executive power of the corporation is vested in the Municipal Commissioner, an IAS officer appointed by the Maharashtra state government. The corporation consists of directly elected corporators headed by a Mayor. The mayor has few executive powers.
The total number of PMC members is 151. The PMC is in charge of the civic needs and infrastructure of the metropolis. Pune is divided into forty-eight municipal wards, each overseen by an Assistant Municipal Commissioner for administrative purposes. The corporators of the administration are elected by the people through a popular vote and almost all the state political parties participate in the election.
The city comes under the Haveli Taluka of Pune District, Maharashtra. The collectors are in charge of property records and revenue collection for the Central government. They also conduct national election in the city. Like other metropolises in India, the Pune Police is headed by a Police Commissioner, an IPS officer. The Pune Police is the law enforcing agency in the city and comes under the state Home Ministry.
