Sir Pherozeshah Mehra was the driving force behind municipal, social and political reforms. He was the planner of the municipal charter for Bombay and founded the English-language newspaper Bombay Chronicle (1913). Sir Pherozeshah Mehra was the first to raise the issue of the Bombay Munciple Government and thought of the need for reform. He wrote the Bombay Munciple Act of 1872, which earned him the title "Father of Bombay Municipality."
