Khandapala refers to a “custom inspector� or “superintendent of police� and represents one of the various administrative titles used in the Karnataka kingdom of Mithila, according to the Panchobh Copperplate—Cf. C.P.N. Sinha in his Mithila under the Karnatas (C. 1097�1325 A.D.) and (2) Radhakrishna Choudhary in The Political and Cultural Heritage of Mithila.—Mithila under the Karnatas did not lag behind other parts of India in gradually evolving an organised administrative system with a sound and efficient machinery. Certain important administrative and technical constitutional terms [e.g., khandapala] are available from the contemporary sources.

Note: U. N. Ghosal regards the Khandapala as a military official (IHQ � XIV.839) or Superintendent of Municipal Ward.
