Gond tribe
was divided into many smaller clans. Each clan
had its own raja or rai. About the time that the power
of the Delhi Sultans was declining, a few large Gond
kingdoms were beginning to dominate the smaller
Gond chiefs. The Akbar Nama, a history of Akbar’s
reign, mentions the Gond kingdom of Garha Katanga
that had 70,000 villages.
The administrative system of these kingdoms was
becoming centralised. The kingdom was divided into garhs. Each garh was controlled
by a particular Gond clan. This
was further divided into units of
84 villages called chaurasi. The
chaurasi was subdivided into
barhots which were made up of
12 villages each.
