Due to the Telangana state separation, the GHMC elections was been postponed
because Hyderabad is as big city as Singapore so, in order to conduct elections,
a lot of time will be consumed, not only time but resources are also required. The
last elections which held in the year 2009, the parties contested those elections
were BJP (Bhartiya Janta Party), Congress, TDP (Telugu Desam Party), PRP (Praja
Rajyam Party), MBT (Majlis Bachao Tahreek), AIMIM (All India Majlis E Ittehad Ul
Muslimeen) and others including independent candidates. This time, another
party contested elections is TRS (Telangana Rashtriya Samithi) which the single
most major party in Telangana to the win highest number of seats in Telangana
Vidhan Sabha elections in 2014 as well as GHMC elections 2016. Another
controversy is that AIMIM was tied up or have an alliance with INC (Indian
National Congress) in last elections but, this time, the scenario is different
because this time AIMIM has no alliance with Congress & Ward wise 2016 from

Greater Hyderabad Municipal


Corporatio
Formation of Hyderabad Municipal Board and Chaderghat Municipal Board In the
year 1869, Municipal administration was first introduced for the city of
Hyderabad. The city of Hyderabad was divided into four and the suburbs of
Chaderghat were divided into five divisions. The whole management of both the
city and the suburbs was handled by the then City Police Commissioner, Kotwale-Baldia.[5]

In the same year, Sir Salar Jung-1, the then Prime Minister of Hyderabad State
under the Nizam, has constituted the Department of Municipal and Road
Maintenance. He also appointed a Municipal Commissioner for Hyderabad Board
and Chaderghat Board. At that time, city was just 55 km2 with a population of
3.5 lakhs.

In 1886, the suburban area of Chaderghat was handed over to a separate officer
and then Chaderghat became Chaderghat Municipality.

In 1921 Hyderabad Municipality has increased to 84 km2.

The first corporation In 1933, Chaderghat Municipality was merged with


Hyderabad Municipality to form Hyderabad Municipal Corporation and was given
statutory status under the Hyderabad Municipal Act. During the following year
(1934), the first elections were held for Municipal Corporation and a Standing
Committee was appointed at that time.[5]

Jubilee Hills Municipality In the year 1937, Jubilee Hills Municipality was formed
by the amalgamation of Jubilee Hills and Banjara Hills. Later, in 1942, the
corporation status for the city has been removed due to some issues.

Secunderabad Municipality In the year 1945, Secunderabad Municipality was


formed. Again in 1950, Hyderabad regained its lost Corporation status along with
the amalgamation of Jubilee Hills Municipality.

Municipal Corporation of Hyderabad The Hyderabad Corporation and the


Secunderabad Corporation, were established in 1950 via the Hyderabad

Corporatio

Corporation Act. Jubilee Hills Municipality merged in Hyderabad Corporation


during this time.[5] In 1955, the Hyderabad Municipal Corporation Act merged
the municipal corporations overseeing Hyderabad and neighbouring
Secunderabad.

Once again in "1955", both the municipal corporations of Hyderabad and


Secunderabad were merged to form Municipal Corporation of Hyderabad (MCH).
In 1956, Hyderabad became capital of Andhra Pradesh after the state was
formed.

The Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation was formed on 16 April 2007 by


merging 12 municipalities and 8 gram panchayats with the Municipal Corporation
of Hyderabad. The municipalities are L. B. Nagar, Gaddi annaram, Uppal Kalan,
Malkajgiri, Kapra, Alwal, Qutubullapur, Kukatpally, Serilingampalle,
Rajendranagar, Ramachandrapuram, and Patancheru. These municipalities are in
Rangareddy district and Medak district. The panchayats are Shamshabad,
Satamarai, Jallapalli, Mamdipalli, Mankhal, Almasguda, Sardanagar and Ravirala.

The Government Order 261 was initially issued in July 2005. Now, the Supreme
Court has rejected the plea to interfere into the matter, the Andhra Pradesh
government has passed the GO 261 that is related to the creation of Greater
Hyderabad on 16 April 2007. Earlier, the twin cities of Hyderabad and
Secunderabad had a population of 4.5 millions living in an area of 172 km. The
new urban agglomeration sprawls across 650 square kilometers with a
population of 6.7 millions. The erstwhile city of the Nizams has now transformed
into an area far greater.

The Government has decided to divide the Greater Hyderabad Municipal


Corporation into five zones (south, east, north, west and central zones), 17
circles and 150 wards. Each ward would cover about 37,000 people. The GHMC is
headed by a Commissioner and also has a Special Commissioner both of whom
belong to IAS. Each zone will have a zonal commissioner, an officer of the rank of
additional commissioner with a deputy municipal commissioners heading every
circle. There will also be a separate engineering wing with an Engineer in Chief
and Chief Engineer at head office level and a superintending engineer for each
zone; a town planning wing with Additional Commissioner (Planning) and a Chief
City Planner at the head office level and a city planner for each zone.
