उत्तर
The main functions of the Mayor of a Corporation are as follows:
- To preside over the meetings of the Corporation and to regulate the conduct of business in such meetings.
- To maintain decorum and discipline in the meetings.
- To act as the channel of communication between the Corporation and the State or the Union Government, as the case may be.
- To receive the foreign dignitaries visiting the city. The Mayor has access to all papers and records of the Corporation. Despite these powers, the Mayor is merely a figurehead if he is not elected directly by the people. Only a directly elected Mayor would have real power.
