The diwan of Mysore, also spelled dewan of Mysore, was the de-facto chief executive officer of the government of the Kingdom of Mysore and the prime minister and royal adviser to the Maharaja of Mysore. The role evolved in name and responsibilities since the foundation of the fiefdom of Mysore in 1350 and its proper reformation into a kingdom in the following centuries until the kingdom's full abolishment in 1950. With the constitution of India into a republic in 1950, the position was replaced by Chief Minister of Mysore (later renamed Chief Minister of Karnataka).

dbo:abstract
  • The diwan of Mysore, also spelled dewan of Mysore, was the de-facto chief executive officer of the government of the Kingdom of Mysore and the prime minister and royal adviser to the Maharaja of Mysore. The role evolved in name and responsibilities since the foundation of the fiefdom of Mysore in 1350 and its proper reformation into a kingdom in the following centuries until the kingdom's full abolishment in 1950. With the constitution of India into a republic in 1950, the position was replaced by Chief Minister of Mysore (later renamed Chief Minister of Karnataka). From offering minor political advice to the monarch as amatya (Sanskrit for minister) like in the Vijayanagara Empire to later acting as a major military chieftain as dalvoy (Kannada for military chief) like in other southern kingdoms to being the head of the government as diwan (Persian/Urdu for accountant or chief adviser) like in the Ottoman Empire, the role has transmuted in powers over time. From being handpicked by the monarch to being elected through popular suffrage, the mode of appointment and appointer also changed. (en)
