Pradhan (Devanagari: प्रधान) is generally ministerial title of Sanskrit origin in cultures of Hindu tradition, mainly used in the Indian subcontinent. The Sanskrit pradhāna translates to "major" or "prime"; however, the more modern Hindi definitions provided by the Oxford Hindi-English Dictionary also include "chief" and "leader". The precise interpretation can differ significantly by region. The style was abandoned by many Indian princely states during the Mughal era in favor of Persian styles such as Wasir and Diwan.

  • Il Pradhan è un alto, generalmente ministeriale, titolo di origine sanscrita nelle culture di tradizione indù, soprattutto nei pressi del subcontinente indiano. Pradhan letteralmente significa "il più grande leader di tutti". Il significato preciso può variare in modo significativo per ogni Stato, e in molti casi, il titolo è stato abbandonato ad esempio in molti stati indiani principeschi (soprattutto a partire dall'epoca Mughal, spesso a favore di titoli musulmani come Diwan o Wasir). Alcuni significati riportati nella Oxford Hindi-English Dictionary includono 'capo' e 'leader'. (it)
