Historyedit
Pre-independenceedit
Jabalpur Municipal Corporation was established as Jabalpur Municipal Committee under Lucknow Nagar Palika Act of 1864 under which Dy. Commissioner was named as Chairman of Municipality. W. H. Newhard became the first person to hold the post.
The first pre-independence Nagar Palika president of Jabalpur was Lt. Babu Kanchedi Lal Jain of Lal Bangla.
In the year 1935 the state government took over the total administration of the Municipal Committee, and Murli Manohar Seth was appointed as its administrator.
Post-independenceedit
After Independence, in 1948 the Nagar Palika Act (Act No.3-1948) was passed. Under this Act on 1 June 1950 Jabalpur Nagar Nigam was established and the city was divided into 30 wards. A 43-member committee was set up in which 34 members were directly elected, 6 were selected members, and 3 nominated members. On 20 October 1959 in a special called meeting, the motto of the organization was decided as Anirvedah Shriyomoolam.[6]
