c18.s15.34

In the Ek Beriz Daftar at Poona were kept classified accounts from all other departments and here were framed the Tarjuma—showing the total receipt, expenditure and balance of the government income for the year, and Khataunis or "abstracts of all expenditure arranged alphabetically under their proper heads." It is therefore no wonder that armed with the knowledge supplied by their department the daftar-officers successfully supervised the work of the village and district establishments.
