Abstract

Emperor Asoka sense of governance has different significance and outlook. He emphasized on governance with moral principles. He never imposed governance to the common people rather convinced them to follow the right path accepted by the people. He considered his self as father of his people and treated them like his children. The sense of religion he wanted to spread every nook and corner of his country but it was not possible for him to be present himself for that so he had delegated this task to his representatives. They all taken this work seriously and helped Ashoka to spread the universal message of love and peace.
