Indian Epigraphical Glossary

English

 Cāṭa (HD),  irregular soldiers according to Fleet and
Bühler. Vogel (Ant. Ch. St.,  pp. 130-32) points out that
Chamba is the only place where the ancient word Cāṭa is still
extant in the modern form Cāḏ meaning ‘the head of a Parganā’.
An important privilege of a gift village was ‘not to be entered
by Cāṭas and Bhaṭas’. Inscriptions (Ep. Ind.,  Vol. XI, 
p. 221) often specify that the granted land was not to be entered
by Cāṭas and Bhaṭas except for seizing robbers and those guilty
of harm or treason to the king (cf. a-cāṭa-bhaṭa-praveśyaṃ cora-
drohaka-varjam in op. cit.,  Vol. VIII,  p. 287). Sometimes we
have bhaṭa-cāṭa-sevak-ādīn (Ep. Ind.,  Vol. IV,  p. 211) and
caṭṭa-bhaṭṭa-jātīyān janapadān (ibid.,  Vol. XIV,  p. 160).
(IE 8-3
 CII 3,  4),  generally mentioned along with
bhaṭa
 sometimes replaced by cāra (spy) and chātra (literally, 
‘umbrella-bearer’,  but really,  a constable,  i. e. a Pāik or Piāda)
probably indicates the leader of a group of Bhaṭas,  i. e. Pāiks
and Piādas
 a policeman leading a group of Pāiks. See caṭṭa.
Yājñavalkya,  I. 336,  speaks of the duty of the king to
protect people from the harassment caused by cāṭas,  robbers
and Kāyasthas and the Mitākṣarā explains cāṭa as persons
who deprive people of their wealth after creating false confi-
dence in them. According to Bṛhaspati quoted by Aparārka, 
‘dangers common to all are those arising from the cāṭas and
thieves’. The word cāṭa in the passage tārkika-cāṭa-bhaṭa-rāj-
āpraveśya in Śaṅkara's Bhāsya on the Bṛhadāraṇyaka Upaniṣad
is explained by Ānandagiri by saying that the cāṭas are those
that transgress the rules of conduct for decent people and that
bhaṭas are servants telling falsehood (Ep. Ind.,  Vol. IX,  p. 296).
But cāṭa is used in inscriptions in the sense of a royal official.
