A typical post picks up 86 interactions against 1.0M followers, an engagement rate of 0.009%. Posts are seen about 35K times each, and 0.244% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 3.51% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline.

Engagement rate as a share of followers, across the 212,482 accounts we have scanned enough to measure. The axis is logarithmic, because the top and bottom of this population are about 22,403 times apart and a linear axis would flatten everything below the median into a single point.

Posting timing

This account posts most often around 14:00 UTC, and Wednesday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Formats this account uses

Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.

  • 100% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
  • 4% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts.
  • Its average post runs 493 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 15% above the same accounts' other posts.

These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

    It has come to notice of Kolkata Police that a highly false and misleading thumbnail/ news was aired through social media handles of R Bangla connecting name of Ld. Commissioner of Police Kolkata with an alleged land scam in Anandapur Kolkata. The fact of the issue is that Enforcement Directorate had recently communicated further developments in the ongoing investigation to Kolkata Police, pursuant to which the process of further investigation was being duly undertaken under the supervision of the Ld. Commissioner of Police, Kolkata. In these circumstances, the reporting, without ascertaining the correct factual position, is wholly irresponsible, unfortunate and unbecoming of a National broadcaster and has caused unwarranted prejudice to the reputation and credibility of the Ld. CP Kolkata, as well as Kolkata Police as an institution. Republic Bangla is hereby called upon to issue an unconditional apology and prominent correction/retraction forthwith, failing which necessary legal action shall be initiated. @BanglaRepublic

    ₹15.96 Lakh Recovered. Every Rupee Returned. A sophisticated cyber fraud saw a victim lose ₹15,96,028/- after fraudsters impersonating as private bank officials gained access to his account through deceptive calls, WhatsApp video calls and call-forwarding manipulation. The fraud was promptly reported on the National Cybercrime Reporting Portal (NCRP) on 05.08.2026. Acting swiftly, S.I. Priyabrata Mahato of Shyampukur PS, the Investigating Officer, assisted by S.I. Priyanko Mandal of Cyber Cell, North Division, traced the funds and successfully placed the entire defrauded amount on hold. Following the order of the Learned ACJM, Calcutta, the full amount of ₹15,96,028/- was refunded to the victim on 18.08.2026. A loss of ₹15.96 lakh. A race against time. And ultimately, every rupee returned.
