Q1A municipality is considering whether to permit private use of different municipal assets. Which asset is least suitable for lease or licence as an income-generating property because it is held for active public use?
The Rajasthan Municipalities Act, 2009 treats municipal property according to its public purpose. A public drain is part of drainage and sanitation infrastructure, while a shop, commercial room or vacant commercial plot may be managed for revenue only through the prescribed legal procedure.
Q2Which of the following is incorrectly placed in the list of obligatory civic duties of a municipality under the Rajasthan Municipalities Act, 2009?
Solid-waste handling, nuisance control, and provision or regulation of cremation and burial grounds are tied to obligatory civic administration under the Rajasthan Municipalities Act, 2009. Recreational spaces may be developed as amenities, but that makes them discretionary rather than obligatory.
Q3Under the Rajasthan Municipalities Act, 2009, which municipal activity is best treated as a discretionary development function rather than an obligatory core civic duty?
The Rajasthan Municipalities Act, 2009 separates obligatory civic duties from discretionary functions. Sanitation, drains and street lighting are core civic services, while park improvement and beautification are development amenities that may be prioritised subject to law, budget, public purpose and State directions.
Q4Assertion: A municipality may remove an unauthorised structure raised on land reserved for a public park. Reason: Municipal lands and public places are held for public use, so enforcement may involve notice, removal or demolition, recovery of expenses and prevention of repeated obstruction. Which option is correct?
The Rajasthan Municipalities Act, 2009 gives the municipality enforcement responsibilities over municipal lands, public places and unauthorised structures. Because park land is reserved for public use, an unauthorised private structure may be proceeded against through the usual notice, removal or demolition and expense-recovery pattern.
Q5Consider the following statements about discretionary functions of a municipality under the Rajasthan Municipalities Act, 2009. 1. They are illegal unless they are listed as obligatory civic duties. 2. They may include libraries, community halls and recreational spaces when resources and statutory authority permit. Which of the statements is/are correct?
Discretionary functions under the Rajasthan Municipalities Act, 2009 are not casual or illegal acts. They are lawful municipal choices such as libraries, community halls and recreational spaces, provided they fit the budget, public purpose, statutory authority and State directions.
