This Act amends the Manipur Municipalities Act, 1994 to expand its scope by including Municipal Corporations alongside existing bodies like Municipal Councils and Nagar Panchayats. It introduces a new Chapter IIIA that establishes the legal framework for Municipal Corporations, defining their corporate status, administrative powers, and composition. The legislation details the election process for Councillors, the selection of a Mayor and Deputy Mayor, and the procedures for resignations and vacancies. This amendment is crucial for formalizing the governance structure of larger urban areas in Manipur, ensuring they operate with a clear legal identity and defined administrative procedures.
