As this area is away from sea and is above the sea level, its winters are extreme. Winter lasts from October to April. April tends to be quite pleasant as the climate is temperate. The summer season is very pleasant and humid, the temperature rises maximum to 25-30 degree.
From mid-July to mid-August, people enjoy the fifth season, monsoon, which provides some cooling relief after the hot months (i.e., May and June). Farming is the main occupation of the people. The farming is done by oxen in the remote area of village but in proper village is ploughed by machinery because of accessibility. The two crops are grown there: rabi and kharaif. The major rabi crop grown here are potato and maize. The kharif crop grown here is only wheat but in very small area of the village. There are two main purposes of this crop: for cattle and for grain.
