Notes

The person-in-charge at the station might ask for additional cash reimbursements for processing your application. The amount demanded varies. It is up to the applicant to decide whether to comply with the request or deny. In past, people who have denied any payments have also received passports without any issues. If your papers are in order, you will get your passport, irrespective of whether you pay this guy or not.

Recently police will visit campus and call you if you have selected Kharagpur Town or campus police will contact you if you have chosen Kharagpur local as jurisdiction while filling the application
