Structure

The municipality refers to the board of Councillors, with one Councillor being elected from each of the 32 wards of Darjeeling town and also some non-elected members who are nominated by the state government. The Board of Councillors elects a Chairman from among its elected members.

According to the West Bengal Municipal Act, 1993, Darjeeling municipality is run by the Chairman-in-Council system of governance, and consists of the Chairman, the Vice Chairman and seven other members of the board of Councillors. The Chairman is the executive head of the municipality and the municipal administration is under his control. The Chairman nominates the Chairman-in-Council and distributes the various functions of the municipality. The Chairman presides over the meetings of the Chairman-in-Council as well as the board of Councillors, and in his absence the Vice Chairman chairs the meetings. The administrative functions of the municipalities are dealt through the committees and are headed by the Chairman-in-Council.

gollark: The algorithms don't *entirely* match the Haskell version, but they're very close, and it produces mostly the same output apart from this weirdness.
gollark: It's not really a Rust problem as much as a my-code-implemented-in-Rust problem, but basically the fractal generator program randomly introduces blotches of various sizes of really different colors to the rest, which the Haskell thing it is based on does not do, and I have no idea why.
gollark: Well, you wrote DDGBot, no?

gollark: The release build is stupidly fast compared to the foolish haskell code.
