There is a local cable television network which provides various TV channels in various parts of the VDC and outside.

Shree Sharada Higher Secondary School and shree kshmadevi higher secondary school is the most renowned governmental high school of this area.

Because of its proximity to the Chinese border, the businesses here are influenced by the Chinese market. Most of the people in Bahrabise Bazar are involved in business of the Chinese products including clothing, bedding, food items, electronic devices, etc.

The village was affected by the earthquake on 25 April 2015. A joint coordination committee among all political parties in the three constituencies of the Sindhupalchok district was formed to carry out a rescue mission in the village.[6]
