In 1999 the village united in a boycott of the [[Lok Sabha]] elections, when none of the 7,200 registered electors voted in protest against the lack of investment in the local infrastructure. The boycott was a success, leading to improvements being made in roads and the supply of electricity and water.<ref>{{cite news |title=An election boycott that worked |url=http://www.hindu.com/2004/04/16/stories/2004041602211200.htm |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20040624161238/http://www.hindu.com/2004/04/16/stories/2004041602211200.htm |url-status=dead |archive-date=24 June 2004 |work=[[The Hindu]] |date=16 April 2004 |accessdate=2009-03-28 }}</ref>
