Online Lost Article Report
The West Bengal Police has a dedicated online service to report lost articles such as mobile phones, wallets, documents, or keys. This is particularly useful for lost mobile phones, as the details can be registered on the **CEIR** portal as well. Filing an online report generates an acknowledgment receipt, which is essential for obtaining duplicate documents or making an insurance claim. A lost article report is not an FIR but serves as a formal record of the loss.
Online FIR & Status Check
While a First Information Report (FIR) for a serious crime typically requires a physical visit to the police station, some district police websites and the Calcutta High Court's e-Courts services allow citizens to check the status of their FIR online. By entering the FIR number, you can track the progress of the investigation and the current case status.
