THE SYSTEM OF CASTE GOVERNMENT

Other powerful bodies are the various Jat and Kayas-
tha sabhas. They are in no sense panchayats; but to a
great extent they supplement their work, and they can
be, and usuail’y are, a g'reat power for good.1

1 I am indebted to officers of the sabhas mentioned for these details.

Principal authorities.—Census Report, U.P., lgn (when a special enquiry
into the system of caste government was made).
Crooke, Tribes and Castes of the N.-W.P. and
Oudh (1896).
