Education
The education rate has increased since 2010, however there is no single college for either boys or girls in the Union Council. Agriculture and animal farming provide the majority of income. Volleyball and Kabaddi are the prominent sports in the area.
This union council needs proper roads for inter village connectivity, high schools for girls in villages and technical college for boys.
