  • The Harappan cities had a well organised administrative system to manage industrial production, importexport, the interrelationship between cities managing trading operations and villages around them. 
  • The town planning, standardization of bricks, weights, seals, shapes, and ornamentation of various objects, confirm the presence of an efficient administrative system. 
  • Cities like Harappa and Mohenjodaro were perhaps regional capitals. 
  • Lothal and Kalibangan were important religious centres. 
  • However, the nature of Harappan polity, whether it was a single state or a federation of small states, is not yet known.
