Civic administration

=CD block HQ=

The headquarters of the Manbazar II CD block are located at Boro. The District Census Handbook shows, in its map, Bargorya as headquarters of Manbazar II CD Block, but the website of Manabazar II Block Development Officer mentions Boro as headquarters of the block. The latter appears to be more authentic. District Census Handbooks are the only source showing the headquarters of all CD blocks throughout West Bengal.{{cite web| url = http://www.censusindia.gov.in/2011census/DCHB/DCHB_A/19/1914_PART_A_DCHB_PURULIYA.pdf |title = District Census Handbook: Puruliya | work= Map of District Puruliya with CD Block HQs and Police Stations (on the fifth page) |publisher= Directorate of Census Operations, West Bengal, 2011 | accessdate = 2 December 2016 }}{{cite web | url = http://www.bdomanbazar2.org/index.php | title = Manbazar II Development Block | publisher = BDO, Manbazar II | accessdate = 2 December 2016 | archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20161220035033/http://www.bdomanbazar2.org/index.php | archive-date = 20 December 2016 | url-status = dead }}
