that Lhe following issues are sought for clarifications by certa jn
corporations regarding the maintenance of zonaI boundaries in the
corporation for the preparation of draft delimitation proposal:-

Issue No.1:
Whether the existing zonal boundaries of, corporalion have to be
maintained while delimiting the wards?
.
Issue No.2:
Whether the factors of assembly constituencies have to be taken
into account while delirniting the wards?

The following clarifications are issued for the above two issues
based on the regulations stipulated in the TarniI Nadu Local Bodies
Delimitation Regulations, 2A77 :'
p.t.o.

Clarification for Issue ltlo.l:


As far as the zonal boundaries within the corporation area is
concerned, it is purely for administrative convenlence of corporation. As
per the said Regulations, the factor of zone has no impact on the
delimitation process as the population of each ward in the Local Body
shall be the same as far as practically possible and accordingly eaeh
ward boundaries alone are to be determined. Hence, the existing
zonal boundaries of corporation need not necessarily be maintained for
the purpose of delimitation of wards.

Clarification for Issue No.2;

The factors
anderlying criteri _thal easb-aard__OtJhe_LoeeL-_Bpdy

the wards of Local Bodies.
