Question

The elections are held in the Panchayats and Municipal Corporation on the basis of ______________________.

• A. Division of village or towns into several wards
• B. Indirect representation
• C. Nomination of candidates in the villages
• D. Location of the village

Answer 1

The correct option is A Division of village or towns into several wards

During the Municipal Corporation and Panchayat elections, the town or the village is split into wards according to its population and people directly elect their representatives from each ward. Post elections, the elected members select a president among themselves to preside over the meetings of the municipality. Hence, Option A is correct. The rest of the factors are not the primary basis for electoral process, hence, incorrect.
