The Maratha state was a centralised autocratic monarchy though it was an enlightened one. The king was at the helm of affairs. The king's chief objective was the happiness and prosperity of his subjects (raja kalsya karanam). To assist the king, there was a council of eight ministers known as the Ashtapradhan.
