Delhi Assembly on Thursday passed the Delhi Municipal Corporation,MCD (Amendment) Bill -2011 to trifurcate the Civic body with voice vote. The move will help provide better amenities in the city. As per the bill, the MCD which came into existence on April 7, 1958 under an Act of Parliament, will be split into North, South and East Delhi municipal corporations and 50 per cent of total 272 seats will be reserved for women as against current 33 per cent. The North and South Delhi bodies will have 104 wards each while the civic body in East Delhi will have 64 wards. The Bill was passed in the House amid pandemonium created by BJP MLAs who demanded full statehood for the national capital. A directorate of municipal services, which will be controlled by Delhi Government, would be set up to coordinate functioning of the three new bodies.
