It is situated on the bank of river Ganga and just about 1 Km from Ganj. This village used to be a "RIYASAT" with around 101 villages under it during Mugal Period. Around that period a saint was living there who was famous for curing snake bites. Once when Shahjahan's wife got bit by a snake, he treasted and got "Jahanabad Riyasat" as a prize from Shahjahan. Presently Ganga flows 2 km from here.
