|
Answer» (a) TheKing was the pivot of administration with the help of the council of ministers. The King also went on tours to observe the public problems. (b) Cholas were good administrators. They believed in local self-government. In many of the villages the administration was carried out, not by the government officials but by the villagers themselves. These villages had three types of village assemblies, namely, the ur, the sabha and the nagaram. There are long inscriptions on the walls of some of the village temples giving details of how the ur and sabha were organised. |
