The Aurora Project

INDIA · WEST BENGAL

West Bengal support that distinguishes Kolkata from the rest of the state.

West Bengal does not operate as one undifferentiated police jurisdiction. Aurora keeps statewide routes visible while making Kolkata Police-specific options explicit when they are genuinely local to the city.

LOCAL CONTEXT

How support works in West Bengal

West Bengal has a meaningful policing boundary that users should not have to understand on their own: Kolkata Police serves the Kolkata commissionerate while West Bengal Police and district or commissionerate units serve the rest of the state. Aurora therefore shows statewide routes first and labels Kolkata-only services explicitly.

LANGUAGE & ACCESS

Designed for the local context

Primary presentation languages: Bengali, English, Hindi.

Aurora only states a helpline's spoken-language availability when the responsible authority confirms it.

ROUTING

What is different here

For immediate danger anywhere in the state, use 112.

Inside Kolkata Police jurisdiction, city-specific routes such as Kolkata Police's 24×7 cyber helpline can be useful; they are not presented as statewide services.

Outside Kolkata, district and commissionerate police contacts differ. Aurora can progressively surface a local police station, women help desk or cyber cell after the user's district is known and the source is current.

TRUST BOUNDARY

What Aurora will not assume

Aurora will not assume that a Kolkata contact serves Howrah, Siliguri, Asansol, Darjeeling or another district simply because all are in West Bengal.

Bengali-first presentation is a localisation target, but spoken-language availability for individual services is stated only when the responsible authority confirms it.

SUPPORT OPTIONS

West Bengal support routes

Statewide contacts come first. Kolkata-specific services are labelled as such so someone in another district is not sent to the wrong local authority.

West Bengal Emergency Response Support System

Use 112 when there is immediate danger to life, violence or a threat of violence, a crime happening now, or another situation requiring immediate police action.

If danger may be immediate: this is an emergency route. A phone action opens your device's dialler; Aurora does not place or record the call.

West Bengal Women Help Line

West Bengal Police lists 1091 as the women help line. It is separate from 112, which should be used where there is immediate danger or urgent police action is required.
