This Act establishes the Sivakasi City Municipal Corporation to govern the city of Sivakasi, replacing the previous municipality. It creates a local government body with a Mayor, council, and committees to manage civic affairs. The corporation operates as a legal entity with the power to own property and enter contracts. It applies to the city limits and functions for five-year terms. By doing so, the law consolidates local administration in Sivakasi and removes the application of the older Tamil Nadu District Municipalities Act, 1920 from this specific area.
