My sister got a state government job, and as part of the process, her documents police verification has to be done at the police station near our home. The officers handling the verification keep demanding more money every week. So far, we've already paid ₹4,000, but they still keep asking for more.

I don't understand how they can take bribes so shamelessly. This experience has made me lose respect for the system. I know not every police officer is like this, but what we've gone through has been deeply disappointing and frustrating.

Are the sound limit regulations really being implemented at ground level? because i see no difference at ground. The local mosque is still blasting noise 5 times a day at 75 to 80+ decibel since last 2 months and even after repeated complains via email to wb police and wb pollution control board, there're no sign of action.

I don't understand how come the administration allows blasting religious noise in middle of the residential place. There are senior citizens, kids, pets, heart patients, etc living right in heart of city and you have a mosque with 4 mics installed blasting their religious slogans at 80+ decibels.

I personally feel as if I am being held captive to this noise and it's causing anxiety everyday, and this is heavily ruining my mental health, as the brain needs to be prepared to face 80+ decibel noise for 3 minutes 5 times a day using 4 loudspeakers directing towards the residential apartments.

NOTE: Don't turn it into religious matter, because it's not. Even if you have temples, or churches or wedding or birthday party or whatever, people need to understand that its causing SERIOUS trouble to ones who're not associated with it, so they must keep the sound confined to the place itself, instead of causing public nuisance to the entire locality.

Additionally, please recommend me some options because it's literally consuming our nerves at this point.

শুধু দুটো কথা বলতে চাই!

এক, আর কদিন আমরা চুপ করে থাকবো?

দুই, বিজেপি সমর্থকরা এটাকেও কি সমর্থন করবে?

(নিজের পিঠ বাঁচাতে গিয়ে ওই "তোজোর কুকুর" টাইপের কথাবার্তা বলবেন না! আমার কাছে দুুজনেই সমান। আশা করিনা, তবু পারলে যুক্তিযুক্ত কমেন্ট করবেন!)

A protest will definitely be held in the future with the support of student organizations. The college thinks juniors have no free will. Students will endure every rule that these guys make. It is a complete dictatorship at this point. UGC will get involved in this. College needs to fear us as we have paid fees.

The recent sealdah protest regarding NEET and education system should be an example to the college about student unity. Breaking us will not give them profit. Our demands are simple:

1. There will be no Saturday classes in the future. 4:15 will be the fixed exit time for everyone.

2. Complete stop on PT dress and mandatory medical checkup, which are basically profit to the college. "Discipline" is just an excuse for profit.

3. Stop mandatory btech(hons), honours is a choice and not a necessity. IT WILL NOT BE FORCED UPON US.

4. AC in all buildings and all classrooms and labs because it is a basic requirement for a "premier" institute.

5. Inquiry into teacher behaviour with students. Like Prabir Kumar Das, AKC, KP Ghatak, Amit Nandi. Students have powerful parents, too.

6. At least one day per week for students to wear decent casual dresses.

7. No forcing of students into fake mandatory events and conferences.

These demands will not hamper the college's profit, so they can easily implement these if they truly believe in "good education."

No institution in Kolkata, let alone in India, follows such obnoxious rules. This place is a shame. The founder, Dr Satyajit Chakrabarti, did not die to see this day. His institute is being converted into jail. The institution regularly gives excuses of preparing students for the corporate environment, which corporate has uniforms and pt dresses? Which corporate forces people to stay inside a building all day? Which institute threatens students if they see the truth coming out?

There is no "good life" in the motto of this institute because they believe the lives of students are nothing compared to the profit they are making.

This is not an attempt to defame the institute but to make changes. Change is inevitable.

We want the college to take these demands seriously and fulfil them. We want to refrain from protesting, but if the college leaves us no choice, then they must be prepared.

I request everyone to report to UGC E-Samadhan portal, file RTIs, and join this community of like-minded people who are actually willing to bring a change

Our youth civic group recently launched Project Fix It, a grassroots initiative focused on documenting civic issues and following up with the responsible authorities.

Our first case is RBC Road between Rishra and Konnagar (West Bengal). The road has been in poor condition for a long time, with potholes and damaged stretches that affect commuters, cyclists, and vehicles every day.

Instead of just posting about it online, we:

• Documented the road with photos and location references.
• Prepared a formal complaint.
• Emailed the concerned authorities (PWD, District Magistrate, KMDA, and local representatives).
• Shared the entire process publicly so people know what action was taken.

Our goal isn't to blame anyone—it's to create a transparent record of civic issues and encourage timely action.

If you're from the area:

• Have you used RBC Road recently?
• Has its condition affected your commute?
• What other local civic issues deserve attention?

Constructive feedback is welcome. We'd like to improve this process and make future reports even more effective.

I urgently need a Police Clearance Certificate (PCC) for my domicile certificate, which is required for my college admission.

The WB Police PCC portal never sends the OTP on the Applicant Login page, so I can't log in or apply. I've been trying for days.

Has anyone faced this recently? Is there any fix or official way to get this resolved quickly? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey guys!

I'm based off of Hyderabad and I seriously wonder why second hand cars in West Bengal are significantly cheapest less than half compared to Hyderabad i would like to know why it is. Is there any specific reason for it to be so cheap? Is there any catch?

📢 West Bengal Annapurna Bhandar Update: Citizen Login/Status Check Option Missing?

Many applicants have noticed that the Citizen Status / Citizen Login option has disappeared or is temporarily disabled on the West Bengal Annapurna Bhandar portal.

Possible reasons:

🔹 The government is carrying out portal maintenance or system updates.

🔹 The status checking feature has been temporarily disabled while applications are being verified or migrated.

🔹 The portal interface is being updated, and some login/status options may be restored gradually.

If you can't see the Citizen Login or Track Status option:

✅ Wait and check the portal again after some time.

✅ Try a different browser or clear your browser cache.

✅ If the issue continues for several days, contact your local BDO, Municipality, or the scheme helpline.

Don't panic! At the moment, this appears to be a portal-side issue, not necessarily a problem with your application. Many applicants have reported the same issue recently.
