Abstract

The Corporation of the City, officially known as the Greater Chennai Corporation, is primarily responsible for the growth, development, governance, and administration of the contemporary city of Chennai. It is headquartered in the Ripon Building, one of the city's most imposing and historic structures. The Honorable Mayor of the City oversees the general welfare and operation of the city. This paper aims to provide a thorough analysis of the women who have served as the city's mayors so far. It includes their administrative background and role in the city's growth and development. The origins, governance, and other developmental facets of Madras, the current Chennai, have been covered by writers. However, there has been no discussion of the contributions made by the women mayors of Madras and contemporary Chennai. Therefore, this is an attempt to draw attention to the historical contributions made by the women mayors of Chennai.
