This village falls under Churu Lok Sabha (Parliament) Constituency. Earlier it was under (Sujangarh(SC)) Assembly constituency but after reorganisation of constituencies now it falls under Ratangarh Assembly constituency. Shri Rahul Kaswan is sitting member of Parliament (Lok Sabha) from this region. Shri Narendra Budaniawho is now member of parliament (Rajya Sabha) and represents Rajasthan earlier represented this Constituency in Lok Sabha. The village has electricity, schools[1] and the drinking water is provided by underground tanks (KUND) that each household has for storing rain water. Some community Kunds are also there which are collectively managed by village community. Recently, a large water tank has been constructed on the western end of the village for tapped water supply. However, the project has yet not been completed and it is expected that it will take several more years for tapped water supply in the village. The water in this huge overhead tank will be supplied from the Aapni Yojna a scheme funded by Govt. of Germany for drinking water supply in three semi arid areas of Rajasthan i.e. Churu, Hanumangarh and Jhunjhunu.
This village has one school of higher secondary level, one Secondary School for girls and one middle school. 2-3 private schools are also run by local youths for primary school children. Though, village has an Ayurvedic Hospital but generally the post of Ayurvedic Doctor remains vacant and the hospital is of no use for the villages. Primary Health Centre under Rashtriya Gramin Swasthyay Mission is also in dismal position. Though a MBBS doctor is posted here but due to accommodation problem in village, he resides in nearby town and not of much use to villages. Basically this Primary Health Centre works as Immunization centre only.
The village has several temples, the oldest being Thakurji's temple which is managed by the family of Shri Ramchandra Swami. Other temples includes Nagnechi Mata temple, Hanuman Temple, Gogamedi, Hariramji,s temple and Pabuji's temple. Most of the temples are located in the western side of the village.
