The Assembly was of two descriptions,—the Samiti and the Sabhā. The Samiti appears to have been a general assembly of the people convened on an important occasion, such as the election of a king.¹ The less formal, and more commonly convened, Assembly was the Sabhā. The Assembly deliberated upon State business of all kinds, executive, judicial, and military.
