Jhunjhunu block · Jhunjhunu district, Rajasthan · PIN 333001 · village code 71062

The 2020 population figure for this village looks unreliable, so no change is shown. Census 2011 recorded 1,014 people; Mission Antyodaya 2020 recorded 3,368 — more than 2.5 times higher, which no village grows in nine years. One of the two is wrong and we cannot tell which.
