Which two institutions existed in the Vedic period for governance?

Last Updated:

The question focuses on the historical relationship expressed in “Which two institutions existed in the Vedic period for governance?”. Its value lies in connecting Sabha and Samiti with the relevant chronology, institution, patronage, text, region or administrative function. The accompanying bilingual material supplies concise background, clarifies the principal misconception and supports direct, statement-based and elimination-oriented practice without turning the description into a repetition of the answer.

AMantriparishad and Rajasabha
BSabha and Samiti
CParishad and Nigam
DGana and Sangha
Correct Answer: Sabha and SamitiYour Answer: B

Explanation

Sabha and Samiti were the two best-known political assemblies of the Vedic age. Sabha was comparatively select, while Samiti had a wider popular character and participated in major public and royal matters. Sabha and Samiti fits that evidence because it matches the specific chronology, agency and function contained in the question. A comparison with the alternatives is useful: Mantriparishad and Rajasabha, Parishad and Nigam and Gana and Sangha are genuine historical terms or names, but each belongs to a different office, patron, text, region or sequence. Reading the question as a relationship among person, period, place and institutional purpose prevents that mistake. The compact memory link is therefore Sabha and Samiti together with the factual context above, not the isolated option letter.

Important Notes

  • Sabha and Samiti is linked to the precise agency, chronology or function stated in the question.
  • Do not confuse it with Mantriparishad and Rajasabha, which represents a different historical association.
  • Parishad and Nigam and Gana and Sangha should be checked by period and institutional role.
