History
A 1257 CE inscription of the Paramara king Jayavarman II was found on the pillar of the Gadgach temple in Atru. The 6-line inscription records the grant of a village to a poet. It is possible that Jayavarman extended the Paramara territories in present-day Rajasthan, resulting in his conflict with the Chahamana rulers of Ranthambore.[1]
Politics
The Member of Parliament from Atru is Dushyant Singh, who is a member of the BJP and also the son of ex-Rajasthan chief minister Vasundhara Raje.
Jain History
Atru: In Atru, which is situated on Kota- Bina railway line, there were to massive Jain temples belonging to the 10th century AD. Both of these temples have been destroyed. One broken Temple, situated near the railway line, contains the Kayotsarga icon still standing on its base half of it is covered by debris. Looking to its plan and foundation, it can be surmise that it was a big temple. The Other temple was dedicated to Parshvanath. A good number of icons were Salvaged from this place, and now lying in the state Museum Kota. Two icons beer inspirations from the reign of Parmar Naravarma. These have been edited by the author. The first inscription which is dated Vikram era 1165 (1108 AD) records that Shreshthi Sahadeva installed the Chatura-Vinshati-Patta under the instructions of Lokanand's son Shubhankar. The other icon was set up by Agrawal Jinapal's son Yamdeva. An icon of Parshvanath (Kota Museum) has a fragmentary inscription datable to the 10th century AD recording the names of Shri Sarvanandhyacharya and "Sarvakanandivihar". Thus the existence of these temples in 10 century AD is proved by the Epigraphical evidence

इतिहास: अटरू के गडगच मंदिर के स्तंभ पर परमार राजा जयवर्मन द्वितीय का 1257 ई. का एक शिलालेख मिला है। 6 पंक्तियों वाले इस शिलालेख में एक कवि को एक गाँव दिए जाने का उल्लेख है। यह संभव है कि जयवर्मन ने वर्तमान राजस्थान में परमार क्षेत्रों का विस्तार किया हो, जिसके परिणामस्वरूप रणथंभौर के चाहमान शासकों के साथ उनका संघर्ष हुआ हो ।
राजनीति: अटरू से सांसद दुष्यंत सिंह हैं , जो भाजपा के सदस्य हैं और राजस्थान की पूर्व मुख्यमंत्री वसुंधरा राजे के पुत्र भी हैं ।
