The 2020 population figure for this village looks unreliable, so no change is shown. Census 2011 recorded 904 people; Mission Antyodaya 2020 recorded 3,340 — more than 2.5 times higher, which no village grows in nine years. One of the two is wrong and we cannot tell which.

XV Finance Commission grant for Sikandarpur panchayat, Purnia East zila parishad. These are the panchayat's own accounts, not this village's: where a panchayat holds several villages, the money covers all of them, and where a village spans several panchayats only this one's return appears.
