==History==
Khanduva first gained notoriety in 1995 when its people held a protest against the local administration at the [[Tehsils of India|Tehsil]] level for the acceptance of their caste ([[Turaiha]]) as a [[Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes|scheduled caste]]. The Turaiha caste was listed in the Scheduled Caste (SC) category of several states in the country, however, local administration declined to issue Turaiha the SC certificates. After years of struggling to obtain the certification, the people of Khanduva formed a community known as the Turaiha Samaj. In 2002, another protest was unsuccessfully held against the District Magistrate. In 2007, the Turaiha held a sit-in protest or [[dharna]], against state government at [[Lucknow]] parliament. In 2008, the Turaiha Samaj filed a case in [[Allahabad]] High court that eventually resulted in the Uttar Pradesh government to issue Government Order accepting the Turaiha as a Scheduled Caste.{{cn|date=July 2020}}

The village is renowned for communal harmony sacred images with 12 temples and one mosque despite a population of approximately 2600 residents. The village was inhabited by the ancestors of the [[Turaiha]] people in late 1700s.
