In the Teli house, oil making was an ancestral business of the family. However with the passing of the last oil maker, and the sons moving to various other professions the business is no more. The part of the old house which held the woodpress is now demolished, and has made for a newer RCC house to be built in its place. The rest of the old house however is still intact but isn't occupied by the family anymore, though it still houses their antiques.
The community has now grown beyond its self sustaining capabilities, the older generation have no intentions of moving out as they have a deeper connection with their ancestry and activities in the town. The newer generations however have moved out to expand opportunities and explore beyond the cocoon that is Pangna, and those who stayed, have created a very introverted community within the settlement.
