Each nagar panchayat has a committee consisting of a chairperson or president with ward members. Membership consists of a minimum of ten elected ward members and three nominated members. The chairperson or president is the head of the nagar panchayat. The NAC members of the Nagar are elected from the several wards of the nagar panchayat on the basis of adult franchise for a term of five years. One third of the seats are reserved for scheduled castes, scheduled tribes, backward classes and women. The councillors or ward members are chosen by direct election from electoral wards in the nagar panchayat. Alongside the elected officials, the state government appoints officers to facilitate the administration and functioning of nagar panchayats, such as chief executive officers, secretaries, superintendents, engineers, and health inspectors. These officers are appointed based on specific rules and regulations set by the state government. The structure and the functions of the nagar panchayat are decided by the state government. Each
