The article tries to add research work on the number of positions within the administrative hierarchy based on the work of Satish Kumar's Rana Polity in Nepal. Actually, it is a supplement to the discussion of "Pre-Rana Administration." It also discusses the private papers of Brian Hodgson, British Resident in Nepal from 1831 to 1843. The author notes that the great majority of officials were Brahmans or Chhetris. The Kaji and Sardar were fairly widely shared among the families represented in the government, but the other posts were more confined to members of one or two thars. There is a table illustrating the top 50 officials by rank and caste in 1843 and the principle persons at the court of Nepal in 1843. The names and functions of personnel like guru, purohit, chautariya, and kaji are discussed. The article also gives details on government offices such as kausi, Kumari chowk, and Sadar Daftar khanna.
