Question
Discuss the administration of Gond State.
✓
Answer
The administrative system of Gond kingdom was centralized:
- The kingdom was divided into Garhs. Each Garh was controlled by a Gond clan.
- Garhs were further divided into units of 84 villages called chaurasi which were further subdivided into 12 villages called barhots.
- The society was divided into unequal social classes. Brahmanas received land grants and became more influential.
- The Gond chiefs wanted to be recognized as Rajputs so the Raja of Garha Katanga assumed the title of Sangram shah.
- The mughals finally defeated the Gonds and annexed a part of kingdom.

Since the ability to predict the monsoon rainfall has been an important aspect of life in India, our ancestors observed Nature around them carefully. They developed local traditional knowledge through their experience. This traditional knowledge is an important heritage we must preserve. For example, fishermen on the Konkan coast predict the onset of the monsoon when fishes that normally stay under water are seen at the surface; in parts of southern India monsoon is said to arrive within 50 days after the Golden Shower tree (Cassia fistula) blossoms. Some communities also believe that when crows build their nests high on tree-tops, it indicates less rainfall, whereas if the nests are lower, rainfall is likely to be heavy. Make a list of such local knowledge about rain, fog, snow or hail in your area.
