उत्तर
Rajan was the chief of the tribe. He was the ablest and the strongest man. His duties were to protect people from enemies and looked after their welfare.
The Rajan did not have absolute power because the members of two councils (Samiti and sabha) exercised control over the king. They advised and guided the king. The member of the tribe could give his opinion on important matters. In this way, Rajan did not have absolute power.
