The Dharma Mahamatras were basically responsible for going throughout the empire and seeing that dharma was followed. They were to supervise any local rulers in spreading the dharma. Here they're explained in Asokas own words on his fifth rock edict:
"In the past there were no Dhamma Mahamatras but such officers were appointed by me thirteen years after my coronation. Now they work among all religions for the establishment of Dhamma, for the promotion of Dhamma, and for the welfare and happiness of all who are devoted to Dhamma."
