Receiving revenue in cash (or reports thereof) and consulting the council of ministers are explicitly mentioned or implied as scheduled activities. Receiving reports on defense is also a critical scheduled activity. Visiting the town incognito is more of an investigative or intelligence-gathering technique rather than a routine daily administrative task for the king himself.<br \/>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Which one of the following activities was not a part of the daily time-table for a King as prescribed in Arthashastra ?
