The 2020 population figure for this village looks unreliable, so no change
is shown. Census 2011 recorded 337 people; Mission Antyodaya
2020 recorded 970 — more than 2.5 times higher, which no village grows in nine years. One of the two is wrong and we cannot
tell which.

holds several villages, the money covers all of them, and where a village
spans several panchayats only this one's return appears.
