The population is about 30,000. The river Siran flows through the heart of the village, and the village is surrounded by mountains. A majority of the population is farmers. People belonging to the Swati, Gujjar, and Syed tribes live here.

The village is prone to natural disasters such as floods and earthquakes. In 1992, the area saw heavy floods. In October 2005, it was struck by an earthquake.
