The District Government Sukkur is divided into eighteen towns governed by
elected municipal administrations responsible for infrastructure and
spatial planning, development facilitation, and municipal services
(water, sanitation, solid waste, repairing roads, parks, street lights,
and traffic engineering), with some functions being retained by the
DGS. The towns are sub-divided into 178 localities governed by elected
union councils (UC's),which are the core element of the local
government system. Each UC is a body of thirteen directly elected
members including a Nazim (mayor) and a Naib Nazim (deputy mayor).
