Reports suggest the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC), recently expanded to over 2,000 sq km, may be divided into two or three independent municipal corporations after February. This speculation follows an evasive response from GHMC Commissioner RV Karnan regarding the corporation's structure post-council term end and election. The appointment of additional commissioners for clusters of zones has further fueled these rumors, with potential new corporations named Hyderabad, Cyberabad, and Malkajgiri.
