Pradhan is a high, generally ministerial title of Sanskrit origin in cultures of Hindu tradition, mainly in and around the Indian subcontinent. Pradhan literally means "Greatest leader of all". The precise meaning(s) can differ significantly per state, and in many cases the style has been abandoned, as in many Indian princely states (mainly since the Mughal era, often in favour of Muslim styles such as Diwan or Wasir). Meanings given in the Oxford Hindi-English Dictionary include 'chief' and 'leader'.
