Explanation

Raja Raja Cholan (reigned 985-1014 CE) introduced an early form of the ballot system in the Tamil kingdom. The Chola administration used a secret ballot system for selecting members to local councils (sabhas), particularly noted in the Uttaramerur inscriptions. This democratic practice was remarkably advanced for its time.
