The Administration of the Sultanate of Dehli c15.1

c15.1

NOTHING depicts the life of a people better than the institutions which they build up and maintain; the creative spirit which expresses itself in literature and art is no less active in the realm of politics and administration. A nation regulates its life through the organization of the state which reflects its needs, its idealism, its endeavour. The student has to search beyond administrative institutions if he desires to understand the nature of a state; he must discover, if he can, the motive force which drives the machinery of government.
