Anyone who has applied for a government scheme knows the routine. A visit to the block office is followed by a trip to the panchayat, then back to the block office again, and the file still hasn’t moved. The Seva Setu Abhiyan is meant to end that cycle. Special camps are held close to where people live, so applications, document checks and grievances can be handled in one place.
This guide covers the West Bengal seva setu camps, which run in early October 2nd, 3rd & 4th, 2026, and includes a short note on the Madhya Pradesh version that shares the 3-4 October dates.
What Is Seva Setu Abhiyan?
Seva Setu is a single-window camp programme. It brings Central and State welfare schemes together so citizens can register on the spot, get documents verified, receive services and raise complaints. Each camp works as a local help desk for schemes and services.
The camps are not only for new applicants. Anyone whose application is stuck, whose KYC is incomplete, or who was told their documents had a problem can also use them.
Dates: What Is Confirmed
Reports differ on the West Bengal schedule. Some say 2-4 October 2026, others 1, 3 and 4 October. The official portal’s camp-location page currently lists the schedule as 2 to 4 October, but it also notes that scheduling is still in progress. A ward or block may have a camp on only one of these days.
The exact date for a specific area should be checked on the portal before going.
Where Are the Seva Setu Camps Held?
No official total number of camps or full list of centres could be found. Camps are organised at district, block or local body, and GP or ward level, and the complete list is on the government portal, not in news reports. Any site claiming a full address list should be treated with caution.
What is reported is where the camps are expected to be:
- Rural areas: at or around the Block/BDO office
- Towns: through the local municipality
- Cities: under the municipal corporation

Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is Seva Setu Abhiyan?
It is a single-window government camp programme that brings Central and State welfare schemes together at the local level, so citizens can register, get documents verified, receive services and raise grievances without visiting multiple offices.
2. How do I find the Seva Setu camp near me?
Visit the official Sewa Setu Abhiyan portal and use “Find Your Shivir.” Select your District, then Block/Local Body, then GP/Ward to see the exact venue and date for your area.
3. What documents do I need to carry to a Seva Setu camp?
Original documents with photocopies relevant to your application, a photo ID such as Aadhaar or voter ID, and bank details if the service involves your account. If following up on a pending application, bring your earlier acknowledgement or reference number too.
4. What schemes and services are covered at Seva Setu camps?
Reported services include PM-KISAN, Krishak Bandhu, old age/widow/disability pensions, Annapurna, Ayushman Bharat, PM Awas Yojana, Mudra, PM Vishwakarma, PM Surya Ghar, KYC and document assistance, and grievance redressal for existing applications.
5. Is there any fee to attend a Seva Setu camp?
Nothing in the available reports indicates a fee. Anyone unsure should ask at the camp, and requests for payment to “arrange” an application deserve suspicion.
6. Can I get help with a pending or rejected application at the camp?
Yes. The camps are meant for new registrations as well as issues with existing applications, incomplete KYC, or document problems.
7. Do all three days (2-4 October) apply to every area in West Bengal?
Not necessarily. Camp scheduling varies by ward and block, so check your area’s specific date on the portal rather than assuming all three days apply.
8. What is the Seva Setu Abhiyan helpline number?
1800 345 0117 (toll-free) or 033-2214 0152 for West Bengal queries.
9. Is the West Bengal Seva Setu Abhiyan the same as Madhya Pradesh’s?
No. They are separate state programmes that happen to share the same name and overlapping dates. West Bengal’s camps run 2-4 October; Madhya Pradesh’s “Sarkar Aapke Dwar” camps run 3-4 October with their own structure and timings.
10. What if my area doesn’t appear on the Seva Setu portal yet?
The camp list is still being updated in some areas. Check back after a few days or call the helpline for the latest schedule.
Seva Setu camps put officials and paperwork in one place. Confirming the date, bringing the right documents and going with a clear purpose can settle in one visit what might otherwise take several trips.
Disclaimer: Camp dates, venues and services may change. Always verify on the official Sewa Setu Abhiyan portal before visiting.
