The Delhi Municipal Corporation (Amendment) Act, 2003

Infrastructure200313 sections

This amendment restructures local municipal governance in Delhi by trifurcating the single municipal corporation into three separate entities: North, South, and East Delhi. Applying to Delhi’s urban residents and local administration, the law details the geographic boundaries of these new zones and wards. Significantly, it also raises the mandatory reservation of municipal council seats for women from one-third to one-half. This legislation matters because it decentralizes civic management, aiming to make municipal service delivery far more efficient for the millions of citizens, while significantly boosting female political representation in local democracy and establishing a coordinator for shared municipal public resources.
