Jharokha Darshan was a practice initiated or popularised by Mughal Emperor Akbar where he would appear at a specially constructed balcony (jharokha) every morning.
This allowed common people, soldiers, and officials to see the Emperor and present their grievances or petitions directly, fostering a connection between the ruler and the populace.
Practices like `Kornish`, `Zaminbos`, and `Sijda` were forms of court salutation or prostration, with varying degrees of ceremonial hierarchy, some of which were also modified or debated during Akbar’s reign based on religious principles (Akbar discouraged full prostration, Sijda).
