Tenth schedule<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Tenth Schedule to the Constitution of India deals with the powers, authority and responsibilities of municipalities. It was inserted by the 74th Amendment Act, 1992. The Tenth Schedule provides for the establishment of municipalities in every state and for the devolution of powers, authority and responsibilities to them. It also provides for the constitution of Finance Commissions to review the financial position of municipalities and to make recommendations to the state governments on the devolution of funds to them.<\/p>\n<p>The Tenth Schedule has been amended twice, once by the 117th Amendment Act, 2003 and again by the 122nd Amendment Act, 2019. The 117th Amendment Act inserted a new Article 243ZD, which provides for the constitution of Ward Committees in municipalities. The 122nd Amendment Act inserted a new Article 243ZE, which provides for the constitution of Metropolitan Planning Committees and Special Purpose Authorities in metropolitan areas.<\/p>\n<p>The Tenth Schedule has been a significant step in the decentralization of power in India. It has led to the establishment of strong and vibrant municipalities across the country. The Tenth Schedule has also helped to improve the delivery of civic services to the people.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The Fifth Schedule deals with the administration and control of scheduled areas and scheduled tribes.<\/li>\n<li>The Twelfth Schedule deals with the distribution of legislative powers between the Union and the states.<\/li>\n<li>The Seventh Schedule deals with the distribution of legislative powers between the Union and the states and between the states.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;Fifth schedule&#8221; option2=&#8221;Twelfth schedule&#8221; option3=&#8221;Seventh schedule&#8221; option4=&#8221;Tenth schedule&#8221; correct=&#8221;option4&#8243;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[50],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-20377","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-indian-politics","no-featured-image-padding"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.2 (Yoast SEO v23.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Which schedule of the constitution of India deals with powers, authority and responsibilities of municipalities?
