India history and geography
Source: Singhi Jain Series: Ratnaprabha-suri’s Kuvalayamala-katha (history)Police posts (in ancient Indian cities) were vividly depicted in Kathās (narrative poems), such as Uddyotanasūri in his 8th-century Kuvalayamālā (a Prakrit Campū, similar to Kāvya poetry).—The Kuvalayamala (779 A.D.) is full of cultural material which gains in value because of the firm date of its composition. [...] Page 58.32: There is a reference to racchā-caukka or Police posts which were like defense citadels garrisoned by soldiers and were a common feature of medieval administration Ṭhāṇe. These were also known as gulmasthāna, the garrisioning contingent of the government, in Gupta administration and found in Mṛcchakaṭika. In the medieval period, the rakṣā-cātuṣkika had come into existence and is recorded in the inscription of Vastupāla and Tejapāla (Tejāpāla-praśasti, about 1225 A.D.).
The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
