Question

What were the new administrative arrangements during the buddhist period?

Answer 1

New Administrative Arrangements:

There was no single ruler who was enough powerful to have total control over the Indian subcontinent. Kings usually made power-sharing agreements with local powerful people.

Some posts were made hereditary. This meant that the son got a particular post after the death of this father./li>

There were many instances when a single person held many posts.

Many important men exercised authority in local administration.
