How big was that, was it covering a wide area? They make it sound like a local gov like a kibbutz/commune/city state where the stakes are lower. IMO democracy usually implies a large scale, where there's significant competing interests which get smoothed over and generalized in a public forum. But definitely sounds like proto-democracy if it predated greece

Yeah it was pre state but state formation itself here starts from around 1000 BCE and there were republican kingdoms(several) before the Kings of Magadha eventually conquered them all(in conquering all of North India). After that, no more republican states existed.
Geographically most of the republican states from the time records start were near fringes of the Gangetic plains which makes me think that's how they all started out. Cities and trade probably allowed more centrally located states to have a standing army and all that so they ended up going monarchical eventually.

All free males could participate(at least from what little info there is), wdym? There's even prayers in the Rig Veda for success in speaking at the Sabha.
Its just how most Indo European soycieties were arranged I think, we were a wave of masculine freedom washing over the serf masses of the Bronze Age sunken in their worship of their matriarchal fertility godesses. In their destruction was the liberation of the world.

The image you showed said the elders participate not all men.
But rereading it seems the council's help Rajan make decisions so it's more like a king's court than an oligarchy.
Still not relying on r-slured nobles is an improvement.

King didn't really have any authority beyond war chief in this period, he got a larger share of the loot from wars but nowhere near resources to maintain a court.
