It is the third largest municipal corporation by population in Tamil Nadu, first being Chennai and second being Coimbatore, according to Government of India census 2011 [1][2]. It consists of a legislative and an executive body. The legislative body is headed by the city mayor while the executive body is headed by a Chief Commissioner. It consists of 100 wards within the city limits. HistoryThe municipality of Madurai was constituted on 1 November 1866 as per the Town Improvement Act of 1865. The municipality was headed by a chairperson and elections were regularly conducted for the post except during the period 1891 to 1896, when no elections were held due to violent factionalism. A Secretary was appointed in 1898 to assist the Municipal Chairperson. A municipal office was established in 1871-72 in a portion of the Thirumalai Nayak's palace. The municipality repaired a causeway across the Vaigai River in 1884 and founded a maternity hospital in 1873. In 1892, the Madurai municipality commissioned 'Arappalayam Water Works' a water-supply project headed by J. A. Jones, Sanitary Engineer to the Madras government, to construct a channel redirecting the waters of the Vaigai River and purifying them. The project was eventually completed in 1894 at a cost of Rs.6,23,000, including a Rs.1,96,000 grant from the government of Madras Presidency. The cost of maintenance was estimated at Rs.32,753. A drainage system for the portion surrounded by the four Masi streets was completed in 1902. During the early years of independent India, the Madurai municipality was dominated by reformists of the Indian National Congress.[3]As early as December 1923, the municipality had passed a resolution prohibiting the sale of liquor and intoxicants in Madurai city. [4]Madurai was upgraded to a municipal corporation on 1 May 1971[5] as per the Madurai City Municipal Corporation Act, 1971.[6] It is the second oldest municipal corporation in Tamil Nadu, after Chennai.[5] StructureThe Madurai City Municipal Corporation Council, the legislative body, comprises 100 councillors elected from each of the 100 wards and is headed by a mayor assisted by a Deputy Mayor.
