Detailed Solution

Sangha has two meanings, One is an organisation, the other one is a form of government, and the last one is for people who follow Buddhism. One is about politics, and the other is about religion. The initial meaning of sangha was the form of government used in the mahajanapada. In the later Vedic period, the sangha also belonged to wealthy people, such as kings and traders. However, the second meaning of sangha is a group of Buddhists who leave their houses and live humble lives together. The similarity between the two meanings of sangha was that it was a group or organisation.
