Question

Who among the following appoints Municipal Commissioners?

The correct answer is

State Government

Municipal Corporations are urban local bodies set up under State Municipal Acts, so the state administration controls appointments to key posts.

The Municipal Commissioner is the chief executive of a Municipal Corporation and is appointed by the State Government, usually from the State Civil Services or IAS cadre.

The Chief Justice, the President and the Vice-President have no role in appointing municipal officers.

Hence, State Government.
