This law amends the Rajasthan Municipalities Act 2009 by changing how municipalities select council members and count children. It requires Municipal Boards to have six nominated members, Municipal Councils eight, and Municipal Corporations twelve, with at least one person with a disability among them. The amendment also clarifies how children are counted for municipal purposes, stating that multiple children from a single birth count as one, adopted children are not excluded, and children with disabilities from previous deliveries should not be counted toward totals. These changes promote better representation of persons with disabilities in local governance and ensure accurate population counts for municipal planning purposes.
