Welcome to Urban Local Bodies Jammu

In the year 1886 two Municipalities were established one for Jammu and another for Kashmir under the Jammu & Kashmir Municipal Act No.16 of 1886. The record reveals that prior to April-1982 there was only single Directorate of Local Bodies for whole the erstwhile State of Jammu and Kashmir. In order to deliver better facilities in both regions and for the convenience of general public the Govt. of Jammu and Kashmir has bifurcated the Local Bodies Department into 02 administrative control in April-1982 headed by Director, Urban Local Bodies, Jammu for Jammu region and Director, Urban Local Bodies, Kashmir for Kashmir region.
