History

The village was established by two brothers, Sakhoji and Sultanji Patil, who obtained 85 acres of land from the British Raj. Over time they attracted residents and formed a village. Most of the villagers are farmers.

Facilities

The Balu Mama temple is newly constructed on the same site where there used to be a Maruti temple. There is one primary school for the first two grades.
