(Till Class 12th class) in the whole village. About 1,600 students are enrolled in the school and a staff consisting of 75 teachers is present at the school. Infrastructure condition is ok but school extension building construction is pending and incomplete till date. School has both English and Hindi Medium Sections but about 90% of students study in Hindi Medium sections.

Use of Online Banking and Cashless Transactions using Paytm or Google Pay is minimum and not preferred by people. One Cyber Cafe is present in the whole village. Almost everyone has internet access but people are unaware of the benefits of Internet. SANITATION AND HYGEINE: Overall Village cleanliness is good and up to the mark. Dustbins were distributed recently in each house of the village to maintain hygiene standards. 90 to 95 % houses have proper toilets and bathrooms. Sewage and Drainage problem exists in the village. SKILL (ESPECIALLY YOUTH): Youth has the potential present inside them but due to unavailability of resources they are unable to present it in front of the society. Youth of the village wishes to get a job in the village itself or in the nearby areas including Chandigarh. People are involved in dairy work, farming and shop keeping in major proportions. RESOURCE MANAGEMENT: Electricity supply is present 24 hours in the village and almost every house has a separate electricity meter. Main source of water in the village is tube well. Separate tube wells are constructed for drinking and irrigation purposes. Shortage of drinking water is one of the major problems of the village. Maintenance of tube wells is also untimely and inappropriate in the village. ARTISANS AND RURAL DEVELOPMENT: No Government centre for handicraft making is present in the village. Some women run small handicraft business in the village. People are totally unaware about the National Handicrafts Development Programme initiated by the Govt. of India. Due to the LAALDORA land issue, development and growth of the village is hampered. FACILITIES PROVIDED: Separate tube well is present for irrigation purpose. Sampark Centre is present in the village for getting knowledge about various government schemes. Dispensary is present in the village for addressing health issues of the people. Almost all kinds of shops are present in the village. AWARENESS ABOUT GOVERNMENT SCHEMES: Less awareness is present amongst people about new and existing government schemes issued in Public Interest by Govt. of India. Few campaigns are organised to spread awareness among people. Only a fraction of the village is aware about Govt. schemes and programmes. After January 2019, no campaign or event has been organised yet. REMARKS: Overall condition of the village is ok but village still needs improvement in various fields. Village requires regular inspection and help from senior authorities of Chandigarh. Govt. Officer in-Charge of the village must be a local authority of Chandigarh which understands problems of people easily and is able to rectify it within stipulated time. There is a dire need of increase in the no. of awareness programmes and campaigns. Some serious issues such as Lack of drinking water, Sewage and drainage, LaalDora Land issue etc. need to be resolved as quickly as possible for improvement of the village.
