Bisfi block · Madhubani district, Bihar · PIN 847122 · village code 220377

The 2020 population figure for this village looks unreliable, so no change is shown. Census 2011 recorded 13,981 people; Mission Antyodaya 2020 recorded 59,950 — more than 2.5 times higher, which no village grows in nine years. One of the two is wrong and we cannot tell which.
