Chola officers participated in village affairs more as advisers and observers than as administrators. The Chola pattern of government was based more or less on democratic principles and most of the business was carried on by the popular assemblies. The most important assemblies were of four kinds:
1. The Nattar was the assembly of a whole district or Nadu and decided all the cases pertaining to that unit.
2. The second popular assembly was nagarattar which was an assembly of the merchants and traders and looked after trade and commerce.
3. Ur was the general assembly of the village where local residents discussed their matters without any formal rule or procedure. The ur was a general assembly of the village. The ur consisted of all the tax-paying residents of an ordinary village. The Alunganattar was the executive committee and the ruling group of the ur. The ur open to all male adults but was dominated by the older members.
4. The Sabha or Mahasbha was the most popular assembly where only the selected few and elders of the village took part and carried on the business by following a regular procedure. It wielded a great authority in the administration of the rural areas.The sabha was apparently an exclusively Brahmin assembly of the brahmadeya villages. The sabha had more complex machinery, which functioned largely through its committees called the variyams.
The Cholas did not believe in centralization of the administration, on the other hand they had allowed vast powers to their local units. The Kurrans or unions of villages enjoyed self-government and were allowed vast powers.
There was remarkable autonomy at the village level. Chola official’s participated in village administration more as observers than as administrators. The Cholas are best known for their local self government at the village level.
