"We sent the servants on ahead, whilst we rested at the Dak bungalo near the railway station, and then followed them at our leisure." (Croker, "To Let", Annotated Version https://editions.covecollective.org/edition/haunting-imperial-nonsense-what-cannot-be-captured-victorian-ghost-story)
A Dak bungalow can be described as an official house in British India that's maintained by the British colonial government where it can also be used as a resting or housing area for British officals.
