c17.s3.2
It was only for about 20 or 25 years in the reign of Kṛṣṇa III that several districts in Tamil country were annexed to the Rāṣṭrakūṭa dominions where the Tamil type of the village council prevailed. A detailed description of that type is not, therefore, strictly relevant in a work dealing with the Rāṣṭrakūṭa administration. The subject has been, besides, discussed by a number of previous writers on the subject.⁴⁰ Attention will, therefore, be drawn here only to salient features of the village councils in Tamil country in order to facilitate comparison and contrast with these in Maharastra and Karnatak.
