Question

Uttara Kuru and Uttara Madra were of‘Vairajya’ type.

✓

Answer

This means that the state was not ruled by a monarch but the members of the Janapada run the state collectively.
The ancient literature mentions types of states such as ‘Ganasangha’ or ‘Sangharajya’ (oligarchy/republic).
Thus, Uttar Kuru and Uttar Madra were of the ‘Vairajya’ type.
