Cachar district, Administrative district in Barak Valley, India
Cachar district spans 3,786 square kilometers of land in Assam state, featuring the Barak River and multiple tributaries flowing through its terrain.
The British forces annexed Cachar in 1830 following Raja Govindra Chandra's assassination, incorporating the region into their colonial administration of Assam.
The district population includes Hindu, Muslim, and Christian communities, with Bengali serving as the official language and Sylheti dialect in common use.
Silchar, the district capital, connects to other regions through Kumbhirgram Airport, railway networks, and established road systems across northeastern India.
The name Cachar originates from the Dimasa word Kachari, reflecting the district's connection to the former Kachari Kingdom that ruled this territory.
