In the offices of the subahdar, the diwan, the faujdar of the environs of the provincial capital, the court of justice, the kotwal's \*chabutra\*, he stationed his clerks, who brought to him every evening a record of what had occurred there during the day. In many of the important \*parganahs\*, separate reporters were posted directly from the imperial Court, to send to the provincial diwan \*siāha\* (ledgers of receipts) of the escheated \*jagirs\* of mansabdars who were dead, absconding or absent. \[\*Mirāt\*, Sup. 174-175.\] - [Previous: c8.s6.3](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.sarkar-1920.c8.s6.3) - [Next: c8.s6.5](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.sarkar-1920.c8.s6.5) - [Up: c8.s6](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.sarkar-1920.c8.s6) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.sarkar-1920.c8.s6.4](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.polity.sarkar-1920.c8.s6.4) · Pramāṇa
