Jati Panchayat : In addition to the village panchayat each caste or jati in the village had its own jati panchayat under Mughals.

Functions :
(1) Jati panchayats wielded considerable power in rural society. In Rajasthan jati panchayats arbitrated civil disputes between members of different castes.

(2) Jati panchayats mediated in contested claims on land, decided whether marriages were performed according to the norms laid down by a particular caste group, determined who had ritual precedence in village functions, and so on.
