Explanation:
Two inscriptions belonging to the period of Parantaka I, found at Uttiramerur provide details of the formation and functions of the village councils. From the persons duly nominated, one was to be chosen for each ward by Kudavolai system for a year. The names of eligible persons were written on palm-leaves and put into a pot. A young boy or girl would take out thirty names each for one ward. The committee members were called Variyapperumakkal. They usually met in the temple or under a tree and passed resolutions. The number of committees and ward members varied from village to village.
