Functioning Local Government in South India

U.B. Singh (Author)

Synopsis This book sincerely attempts to discuss the municipal administration in the Southern states of the country in the post 74-CCA era. The legal structural frame work of urban governance in the four major developed states in the country is highlighted in the book. Separate sections have been devoted to the urban local bodies in the transitional, smaller and larger urban areas. The mandatory provisions enshrined in the constitution regarding the Ward Committees, District and Metropolitan Planning Committees. Finance Commission and State Election Commission are discussed separately. The consolidated picture in all the four states at a glance is depicted in Annexures appended at the end. This book will definitely prove to be a pioneering work on the subject. It would be of immense help to the academicians, researchers and students in the field of administration in general and urban administration in particular.
