East Kolkata refers to the eastern areas of the city of Kolkata, India. It includes the localities of Salt Lake City, New Town, Bantala, Dhapa, Tangra, Tiljala, Topsia, VIP Nagar, Anandapur, Metropolitan Township, East Calcutta Township, Kasba, Kalikapur, Ajaynagar, Santoshpur, Survey Park, Mukundapur, Panchasayar and certain parts of Garia like Baishnabghata-Patuli Township, Chak Garia and New Garia. The northern part of East Kolkata is dominated by the townships of Salt Lake City and New Town. The region is characterized by well planned residential blocks. This part of the city is divided into regular blocks and houses most of the attractions in the region.

Transport

The main road transport artery is the Eastern Metropolitan Bypass which runs from north end of the city to Garia in the south. The Metro Railway runs through the southern part of East Kolkata with stations at Baishnabghata-Patuli and New Garia.

Townships

East Kolkata has five major townships which constitute the bulk of the region. These are as follows :

  • Salt Lake City
  • New Town (or Rajarhat Township)
  • Metropolitan Township
  • East Calcutta Township
  • Baishnabghata-Patuli Township

IT Hub-Sector V

The Information Technology hub is the centre of some of the notable IT/ITES Indian and multinational companies. A total of 1,500 companies (by April 2019) have their office space in Sector V.[https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/kolkata/soon-smart-composting-units-at-sector-v-offices/articleshow/68713409.cms] More than 2 lakh people are employed in Sector V, Salt Lake City by 2018. The area is administered by Naba Diganta Industrial Township Authority (NDITA). Sector V has a total road length of 17km. Lack of adequate public transport is a major problem of this area. After the commissioning of Metro Line 2 (expected by March 2019) and Metro Line 6 (both lines have an intersection at Sector V Station) the situation is expected to improve. The State Government has also planned a flyover at the College More Crossing for smooth traffic movement.
