Bishnupur II community development block

Bishnupur II covers 81 square kilometers of land at 8 meters elevation, containing multiple villages across the South 24 Parganas district of West Bengal.

The development block emerged as part of India's administrative restructuring, becoming a crucial component of the Alipore Sadar subdivision's local governance system.

The population of 214,531 residents represents a mix of religious traditions, with Hinduism at 61 percent and Islam at 37 percent of inhabitants.

The block maintains 107 primary schools and multiple healthcare facilities, including a primary health center that serves the local population of surrounding villages.

Despite its agricultural heritage, the majority of workers now engage in non-farming activities, marking a shift in traditional employment patterns.
