Economy

There are not many economic opportunities or resources, despite the productive agricultural land; due to a lack of infrastructure, the populace is reluctant to grow produce on more than a subsistence level. Most employment available in the village is on a small household scale connected with farmers markets. Many residents are migrating to urban areas such as Delhi or Mumbai, and the town's primary income is derived from money sent home by those employed elsewhere.
