Bishnupur II
Bishnupur II is a community development block that forms an administrative division in Alipore Sadar subdivision of South 24 Parganas district in the Indian state of West Bengal.
The Bishnupur II CD block is located at 22°22′52″N 88°16′05″E / 22.3812°N 88.2680°E. It has an average elevation of 9 metres (30 ft).
The Bishnupur II CD block is bounded by the Thakurpukur Maheshtala CD block in the north, the Bishnupur I CD block in the east, the Falta and Magrahat I CD blocks in the south and the Budge Budge I and Budge Budge II CD blocks in the west.
The South 24 Parganas district is divided into two distinct physiographic zones: the marine-riverine delta in the north and the marine delta zone in the south. As the sea receded southwards, in the sub-recent geological period, a large low-lying plain became exposed. Both tidal inflows and the rivers have deposited sediments in this plain. The periodical collapse of both the natural levees and man-made embankments speed up the process of filling the depressions containing Brackish Water wetlands. The marine delta in the south is formed of interlacing tidal channels. As non-saline water for irrigation is scarce, agriculture is monsoon-dominated. Some parts of the wetlands are still preserved for raising fish.
The Bishnupur II CD block has an area of 81.71 km2. It has 1 panchayat samity, 11 gram panchayats, 167 gram sansads (village councils), 62 mouzas and 52 inhabited villages, as per the District Statistical Handbook for South Twenty-four Parganas. Bishnupur police station serves this CD Block. Headquarters of this CD block is at Bakrahat.

According to the 2011 Census of India, the Bishnupur II CD block had a total population of 214,531, of which 138,979 were rural and 75,552 were urban.
