How this atlas is made · What “last verified” means · What “source-checked” means · The full record behind this page

Kolkata's civic complaints used to scatter across a call centre, a control room, a chatbot and the Commissioner's inbox — since June 2026, one platform tracks every one from filing to resolution.

In June 2026, Kolkata Municipal Corporation folded its scattered citizen-complaint channels — the call centre, control room, online grievance portal, chatbot, paper submissions and the Municipal Commissioner's own email — into a single Grievance Tracking and Monitoring Centre under the upgraded e-KMC 2.0 platform. Complaints about unauthorised construction, parking violations, licences and parks are now routed to field officials and tracked from registration to resolution, with interim status updates if a case runs past two weeks and a resolution notice by SMS, email or phone; the Municipal Commissioner receives daily and weekly status reports. The June 2026 announcement gave no figures on resolution rates, so there is no track record yet of whether consolidated routing actually speeds anything up.

Live 📅 since 2026

🎓 Lesson

A single tracked pipeline for complaints is a governance upgrade on paper from day one — whether it actually changes resolution times is something only a later audit, not the launch announcement, can show.
