The main characteristics of the administration during those days were as follows:

Concentration of authority and responsibility in the District Officers who were Magistrate, Collector, and Judge;

The area of the district was not so large as to make this undivided responsibility impossible. The District Officer had complete knowledge of his area and people;

The administration was based on a set of simple laws and rules, respected Indian Institutions and local customs, so far as they did not clash with the Imperial interest; and

Formalities were at the minimum level.

Thus, the administrative structure was simple, but effective. The officers possessed a high sense of responsibility. They developed traditions of character, initiative, imagination, understanding and paternalism.

Hope it works out for you.
