The word &amp;#039;&amp;#039;k&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;ch&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;ri&amp;#039;&amp;#039; got currency in Bengal in the seventeenth century through the European companies. It refers to a courthouse, a hall, an office of administration, a place of business transactions, and zamindari&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;#039;&amp;#039;management office, etc. In Madras and Mysore, the offices are commonly called kacharis. Even the authorities are often addressed as kacharis, as in Bengal people used to address the government as Sarkar Bahadur. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;p class=Normal &amp;gt;In the early official records of the Mughal government, the word &amp;#039;&amp;#039;duftar&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is more frequently encountered than kachari. Whereas [[murshid quli khan]] removed his &amp;#039;&amp;#039;d&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;i&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;w&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;ni duftar &amp;#039;&amp;#039;from Dhaka to Murshidabad in 1704 and not his kachari; Warren [[hastings]] shifted in 1772 the revenue kachari from Murshidabad to Calcutta and not the revenue duftar. From the beginning of the establishment of the company&amp;#039;;s Calcutta Zamindari, we find the company&amp;#039;&amp;#039; gomosth&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;s of the zamindari transacting their businesses in kachari, not in duftar. The [[agency house]]s and indigo planters called their offices kacharis, not duftars&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;lt;p class=Normal &amp;gt;The ascendancy of the British in Bengal had contributed to the replacement of the north Indian duftar with the south Indian kachari. From 1765, all revenue offices including the zamindari duftars came to be known as kacharis. The district collectors held offices at kacharis. In the early twentieth century literature, we thus find &amp;#039;&amp;#039;sark&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;ri&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (government) kachari, district kachari, zamindari kachari, &amp;#039;&amp;#039;mah&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;zani kachari&amp;#039;&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;&amp;#039;b&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;ni&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; &amp;#039;&amp;#039;(business) kachari. Every district had thus &amp;#039;&amp;#039;kachari p&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;ada&amp;#039;&amp;#039; where people of authorities lived and transacted their businesses. Now kachari has been superseded by English terms, such as, department, office, directorate etc. Now people no longer go to kacharis, though the term is still used by many elderly people for District Collector&amp;#039;;s office.
