Detailed Solution

The Municipal Corporation is the name of the three-tier self-government in metropolitan cities.
The Constitution of India has three tiers of governance in India - the Central Government, the State Government, and the local self-government. Decentralisation of power was recognized by the Constitution through a constitutional amendment made in 1992. Earlier there have been several attempts made to decentralise the power to the level of village and town. Municipal corporations are controlled by elected bodies. The political head of the municipal corporation is the Mayor of the City. This constitutional status for the urban local self-government has helped to deepen democracy in our country. It becomes the voice of people and increases their participation.
