The village has only 21 households and 140 voters (as per 2011 Census). The residents had boycotted the recently concluded Assembly and Lok Sabha elections to draw the attention of politicians to their plight but to no avail.

The villagers turned into organic spice farmers to sustain themselves without depending on contract works or government jobs. They grow spices such as cardamom, ginger, red chilli, turmeric, medicinal and aromatic plants, and many other agriculture and horticulture product. Each household in the village earns minimum Rs 1 lakh annually from cardamom, orange and ginger cultivations.

The state government and the Spice Board of India had last year signed a memorandum of understanding to encourage organic spice farming in the village. Despite having all the potentials to be among the front-runners, the villagers are lagging far behind and still depending on porter tracks and ramshackle hanging bridge for all purposes.

The self respect nature of commitment of villages for better life against all odds is a testament of what one can achieve in the worst of conditions.
