Overview

Like many similarly sized localities, it forms part of the country's extensive network of villages and small habitations that fall under the broader administrative framework of districts, tehsils, and gram panchayats.
Administration
Local administration in settlements of this size in India is generally carried out through a gram panchayat under the provisions of the 73rd Constitutional Amendment, 1992, which established a uniform three-tier system of Panchayati Raj. Revenue administration is handled by the office of the local tehsildar and the district collector.
