the dynamics of maintenance of the right and balanced control and deployment

यः प्रमाणं न जानाति स्थाने वृद्धौ तथा क्षये। कोशे जनपदे दण्डे न स राज्येऽवतिष्ठते॥ यस्त्वेतानि प्रमाणानि यथोक्तान्यनुपश्यति। युक्तो धर्मार्थयोर्ज्ञाने स राज्यमधिगच्छति॥ इन्दिश्चे स्प्रूचे ५०१५ ५०१६ महाभारते विदुरनीत्यां

The great statesman Vidura sums up in two crisp statements the entire sum and substance of effective administration

If the ruler is not aware of, not having the right control, not having the right conception or understanding about

the dynamics of maintenance of the right and balanced control and deployment, the process of the progress happening as also the possible drains and depletion in

General Administration, in the State Exchequer and treasury, in the geographic and demographic territory, in the matter of armed forces, law and order, and policing, then sure, he is not going to last long as the ruler of the State.

On the other hand, if the ruler is ever meticulous in paying constant attention in the areas as mentioned above, with the right understanding as to the matters of justice, administration and finance too he remains successful as a king
