Education
editThe village does not have a 10+2 school. Many parents cannot afford to send their teenagers to the nearby city and the generation is not able to get good education. Private schools like Genius School and Kalangidhar School also do not have facilities to teach higher classes. Only parents with higher income can provide good education to their kids.[citation needed]
