But if the word is used strictly within the limits of the Bangalore city, one would be left wondering how such a term holds a relation to the ancient urban systems. Outline of Attarakacheri Bangalore, significance, and history and regions aroundBackground History of AttarakacheriThe name Attarakacheri is most probably the Kannada phrase "Attara, which in short means eighteen", and "Kacheri means administrative unit.

Different sets of work in administration are different from one another, and now, at this very moment, Attarakacheri would consist of one such centre of administration that could possibly be available for the local governments. Indeed, the need for local governance in those times was essential because, without Attarakacheri, working administration on matters like the record of the land and issues related to litigation would become dirty.Administrative divisions during British rule made up a very important part of the collection of taxes, application of laws, and communication of the crown to the local regions.
