The Karnataka High Court is the High Court of the eponymous Indian state. The high court is a Neoclassical inspired building, with a red coloured scheme inspired by the flag of Karnataka.The building is not open to the public and can only be viewed from Cubbon Park or Dr Ambedkar Road opposite the Karnataka Parliament building. So I had to contend with looking at the building from the outside only.The unusual look of the building makes it worth a look if in the area.

Located centrally in the city of Bangalore, next to Cubbon Park. The High Court of Karnataka, the highest seat of judicial authority, is housed in heritage building that earlier housed Kacheri (judicial compound) of the local rulers. The two storeys building in red colour is clearly visible and easily accessible. The photography is prohibited here. Entry is subject to security check and on furnishing of valid ID. The Cubbon park is situated next to it.

History:The history of the Karnataka High Court can be traced back to the year 1884, under the reign of the Maharaja of Mysore Chamarajendra Wadiyar, when the Chief Court of Mysore was reconstituted with three judges and was designated as the highest court of appeal in the princely State of Mysore.Earlier The Court of the Chief Judge, Mysore, was set up in 1880 along with three other courts - the Court of District judges, the Bangalore Court of Small Causes and subordinate and Munsiff courts. The Bangalore Small Causes Court was abolished in 1881.In 1930, it was renamed as the High Court of Mysore and the Chief Judge was given the new name of Chief Justice. In 1973, it got its present name of Karnataka High Court.

A magnificent mesmerizing building and a perfect contrast to the opposite grand standing the off white legislative building. The separation from legislator and judiciary branches of democracy. Great view and the architectural design. I hope the blind justice wakes up to administer true justice and establish integrity and trust in the judicial process. Fascinating dress code of the bar members and interesting to find many women in legal professions. Honestly, hats off to them. Enjoyed the short day tour at this historical place which makes historical difference in judgements everyday. I hope that truth triumphs.

The Karnataka High Court officially known as, Karnataka Uccha Nyayalaya is the High Court of the Indian state of Karnataka. It is located in Bangalore, the capital city of Karnataka. It was previously called the High Court of Mysore. The High Court functions out of a red brick building known as Attara Kacheri. The High Court is located in a building called as Attara Kacheri (meaning “the Eighteen Offices”). It is a two-storied building of stone and brick, painted red, in the Graeco-Roman style of architecture – a structure of vast expanse with Ionic porticoes at the center and at the two ends of the elevation. The construction of the building was supervised by Rao Bahadur Arcot Narayanaswami Mudaliar and completed in the year 1868. It was earlier named as Old Public Offices and got its name of Attara Kacheri when the eighteen departments in the general and revenue secretariat of the Mysore Government were shifted here from their crowded premises in Tipu Sultan’s summer palace. Tipu’s Palace was only a temporary house for the offices. When Bowring took over as Commissioner after Mark Cubbon, he found the building unsuitable, both because of its state of maintenance as well as its limited accommodation which no longer sufficed for the much-increased work of administering the erstwhile Mysore State. It was he who conceived and prepared the plans for a full-fledged secretariat building in the city area. The construction was taken up in 1864 and completed at a cost of Rs. 450,000 in 1868. There was a proposal to demolish this building in the year 1982. However, public interest litigation (PIL) was filed in order to save this old building from getting demolished. This was the first PIL to be filed in the Karnataka High court and the case was heard in the very building that was supposed to be demolished. In August 1984, the judges M. N. Venkatachaliah and Vittal Rao pronounced a judgment that stayed the demolition. The equestrian statue of Mark Cubbon was formerly located in front of the High Court. It was moved to Shri Chamarajendra Park (Cubbon Park) on 28 June 2020.The Karnataka High Court is currently functional in Bangalore, Dharwad and Gulbarga. There was a long-standing demand for an additional bench: the location of Bangalore in south-east corner of the state caused hardship for people visiting the High Court from the distant northern regions of the state. This issue led to agitation, including boycott of court proceedings by lawyers in the northern region. The demand was finally met in the year 2006 when it was decided that circuit benches of the High Court would be set up in Dharwad and Gulbarga.[8] The new branches were inaugurated on 4 and 5 July 2008, respectively. There was later demand to make both Dharwad and Gulbarga benches permanent. Consequently, Dharwad circuit bench became a permanent bench from 25 August 2013 and Gulbarga circuit bench became a permanent bench from 31 August 2013.

The High Court building is located in Cubbon Park and just opposite to Vidhanasoudha, the secretariat of Karnataka Government and Legislative assembly, in Bangalore. It was identified as Attara Kacheri since the ‘eighteen offices’ of the state government were functioning there during the period of maharaja of Mysore. It is a two storied building in red colour said to be in the Graeco-Roman style of architecture. This building was constructed during the period of Rao Bahadur Arcot Narayanaswami Mudaliar (1868) then Diwan of Maharaja. The name Attara Kacheri came to it when the eighteen departments of state government like revenue secretariat were shifted to it.

1) We can only admire the red old building from the outside. General public are not easily permitted.2) The people who visit here are not the best mannered of the society- you can find some of the greediest and evil visitors in every sense.3) The Cubbon Park around it used to be good. It is still good in patches away from the roads and buildings that have filled in its core area.4) If an outsider wants to see this place, what exactly is there to see? Its really not a tourist place, but a place that punishes many people.
