Nagar Palika is the urban body in the area in which we reside.
The Nagar Palika is formed in the following manner:
1. The total area of the Nagar Palika is divided into wards. All the voters in a ward elect one representative of the area, who is called the Parshad.
2. Each Parshad of every ward is the member of the Nagar Palika.
3. Apart from them, there are gome nominated or co-opted members also.
4. Along with them, the members of the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha from that area are also included. The elected parshads elect one of them as their head, who is called the Chairman (or Chairperson) of the Nagar Palika.
