The important features of the Gupta administration

• The role of the minsters: The ministerial council, sometimes known as Mantrin, Amatya, or Sachiva, was instrumental in making the Gupta administration special. In the Gupta empire, the Council of Ministers was the highest level of bureaucracy. They possessed the authority to prevent kings from making rash decisions. The empire's minsters also held major portfolios.
• Division of the empire into provinces: The empire's bureaucracy was divided into provinces to ensure that the administration ran smoothly. Bhukti was the name given to these provinces. It was a department of administration. The Bhuktis were further subdivided into V'isayas (districts).
