Lost eldest brother last month and the body had to be preserved for 24+ hours, awaiting cremation by the only child on arrival from abroad. The arrangement at Peace World is good and the entire process of handing over the body and its retrieval was smooth. Not very expensive either. The attendents were also happy with the tip we could afford.

It is located at a stop called Peace World or Hindu Cemetery from Park Circus. There are many benefits to catch the S24 bus from Howrah.
This place has a morgue in it that can store as many a 8 bodies at a go. Th4 cost of storing a body is roughly Rs. 1,000 fir 24 hours. The place has 5 people who operate in the morguery and 1 person as administrative staff responsible for paper work.
