The river circles the village to the north, west and south. Traditionally, the village doesn't lack of water. There are five wards in the village of Sabikpur.

The village contains 704 houses. Around 100–150 years ago, a saint meditated at the Sadhu Baba temple and left his body there, making it a sacred place. This village also includes a temple sacred to Lord Shiva. The village lacks signs of development, such as banks and proper healthcare services. During storms, the village has problems with electricity and transportation.

Agriculture
