East Delhi Municipal Corporation (EDMC) was one of the municipal corporations in Delhi, India created after the former Municipal Corporation of Delhi was trifurcated in 2012. It occupied an area of 140 km2 (54 sq mi) which was further divided into 2 Zones (Shahdara North and Shahdara East Zone) and 64 Wards, serving the population of almost 18 lacs citizens in Delhi.[1]
