Pincodes of West Midnapore
The term “West Midnapore Pincodes” describes the postal codes used in the Indian state of West Bengal’s West Midnapore district, also referred to as Paschim Medinipur. Designed to increase the effectiveness of mail sorting and delivery, these Pincodes are a crucial part of India’s postal system. In West Midnapore, every Pincode denotes a distinct geographic region that helps ensure that mail and parcels are distributed precisely and quickly. The first digit of a Pincode typically denotes the regional zone of India, the second the sub-region, and the third the sorting district within the area. Pincodes are typically six digit numbers. Since they identify each post office within the sorting district, the final three numbers are very significant.

About West Midnapore
The Indian state of West Bengal is home to the historic city of Medinipur, often known as Midnapore. It serves as the West Medinipur district’s headquarters. It is located alongside the Kangsabati River, sometimes referred to as Kasai and Cossye. Mohanpur, Keranichati, Khayerullachak, and the city proper make up the Urban Agglomeration of Midnapore. The center of the 576 square kilometer Midnapore Kharagpur Development Authority metro area is made up of Kharagpur, a neighboring city, and Midnapore.
History
Working together with the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI), Calcutta University and the West Midnapore district are excavating several highly interesting prehistoric sites. The area appears to have been heavily affected by Buddhism and Jainism in the past. Coins from Samudragupta have been discovered close to the settlement. A portion of unbroken Midnapore was also a part of the kingdoms of Shashanka and Harshavardhana. The thriving port of Tamralipta, close to modern-day Tamluk, which was mentioned in the travelogues of Faxian and Xuanzang, is, however, the most important archeological site in the area.
Climate
There is a hot tropical monsoon weather trend in place. With daily highs in the upper 30s to mid-40s and lows in the lower 30s, the summer season spans from April to mid-June. Evening showers, also referred to as dust storms or kalboishakhis, frequently follow days of intense heat (loo). The majority of the region’s yearly rainfall, or about 1500 mm, comes from the southeast monsoon, which can bring rain from mid-June through late August or even September. Mild winters, lasting two to three months, often have lows between 8 and 14 degrees Celsius.
Economy
There is no shortage of electricity. Power outages are growing less frequent over time.When there are power outages, the majority of businesses, as well as wealthy and upper middle class homes, have backup generators and batteries on hand. The availability of water is now more reliable than it was. The Kangsabati River provides the majority of the water. The municipal water supply is abundant and free; people who can save water in buckets or reservoirs made of plastic, metal, or concrete store it for around an hour twice a day.
Demography
There were 169,264 people living in the Midnapore municipality as of the 2011 census, with 84,977 men and 84,287 women. There were 15,172 people aged 0 to 6 years. The population aged 7 and above had an effective literacy rate of 88.99 percent. There were 153,349 people living in Medinipur as of the 2001 India census. Male literacy is 80% and female literacy is 71% in Medinipur, which has an average literacy rate of 75%, higher than the 59.5% national average. Ten percent of people in Medinipur are younger than six years old.
Economy
Census data from 1991 and 2001 showed that the undivided district’s economy was predominately agrarian. As a district town, Midnapore served as the administrative and judicial hub for the rural district, providing an additional purpose. Because of this, a lot of companies and services were centered around this function, which has obviously suffered because of the district’s division. This function is still filled by Midnapore, which has more doctors, attorneys, teachers, banks, and administrative offices than any other town in the district, whether it is in East or West Midnapore.
Culture
Midnaporean culture generally values unhurried living as a nod to the city’s rustic, mofussil core. In general, Midnaporeans are amiable and relaxed back. In the warmer months of the year, it is not unusual for stores to open late and close in the afternoon. Additionally, stores may close for tea and major sporting events like the World Cup football and cricket. There are lots of tea stores and paan booths, as well as a lot of mishtir dokaan (sweet shops).
