hey mate

here is your answer

Explanation:

Members of the Municipal Corporations are elected by the people directly through elections. The serving period of a Municipal Corporation is five years, until it is dissolved before. However, the provisions for elections to the municipal bodies are not uniform throughout the nation as the municipalities come under the State government jurisdiction. While the state governments arrange the elections in some states, the Executive Officers do the same in some other municipalities.

Elections to the Municipal Corporations are conducted under the superintendence, direction and control of the State Election Commissions.

The electoral roll for each ward of the city is split into one or more parts taking into consideration the area within the ward wherein the voters to be included in each part reside, so that the voters to be included in each part belong to a named area, street or road within the ward and the electoral roll so split up in respect of the several parts of the ward together constitutes the electoral roll for such ward.

Any person may be nominated as a candidate to fill a seat in any of the wards of the city, if he is qualified to be chosen to fill that seat under the provisions of the Act.

In a ward wherein a seat is reserved for the Backward Classes, Scheduled Castes, or Scheduled Tribes, a candidate shall not be deemed to be qualified to be chosen to fill that seat unless his/her nomination paper contains a declaration by him/her specifying the particular class, caste or tribe of which he/she is a member and said class, Caste or tribe is a Backward Class, Scheduled Caste, or Scheduled Tribe. If a seat is reserved for women, the nomination paper shall contain a declaration that the candidate is a woman.

Every political party recognised by the Election Commission of India as a National Party or as a State Party shall be a recognised political party for the purpose of election of the Corporation.
