<br />
== History ==<br />
<br />
There is no documented history on Taruana, but according to oral history, it was founded by Sardar Taru Singh Sidhu, who named it Taruana.<br />
<br />
==Transport facility==<br />
<br />
===Bus facility===<br />
As the village is on MDR 101A road (Kalanwali to Rori), transport, including by bus, is easily accessible. Kalanwali is just {{Convert|3|km|abbr = on}} away from Taruana and from Kalanwali Bus Stand one can easily get busses for long routes. On the other hand, [[Sirsa, Haryana|Sirsa]] (District HQ) is also just {{Convert|30|km|abbr = on}} away. By bus it takes only one hour to reach [[Sirsa, Haryana|Sirsa]].<br />
<br />
===Train facility===<br />
Since no train track crosses the village, there is no train station within the village, but from Kalanwali, there is easy access to trains.<br />
<br />
==Education==<br />
The village has good educational facilities. For primary education, there are two schools: one for girls and other for boys. For higher education, the village has a government high school that provides education up to secondary level.<br />
<br />
Schooling had previously gone up to eighth class, but was extended up to tenth blass in 2003. The 2003–2004 batch was the first ninth-class batch in the school.<br />

<br />
Higher education has always been a problem for not only Taruana, but also all the villages in this area, for girls since 2019. An all-girls' college is being founded in Taruana. After 12th class, students have to travel long distances for their education. Boys manage but it becomes very difficult for girls to travel 50&nbsp;km daily, making it hard for them to pursue higher education in the area.<br />
<br />
==Religion==<br />
Most of the natives of this village are Sikhs, although there are also few Brahmans. A Gurudwara Sahib is located at the north end of the village. People go to Gurudwara Sahib every morning to be a part of the morning [[Ardās|Ardas]]. Apart from Gurudwara Sahib, there is a Dera of Baba Sarabh Dyal Ji. Baba Sarabh Dyal Ji was a famous saint.<br />
<br />
==Jatt Sikh Gotras==<br />
The village primarily has three [[gotra]]s i.e. [[Sidhu]], [[Dhaliwal (surname)|Dhaliwal]] and [[Mann (surname)|Mann]].<br />
80 percent of [[Jats]] are Sidhus, while the rest are Dhaliwals and Manns. There are two to three houses of Bhullar gotra also.<br />
<br />
==Medical facility==<br />
Taruana does not have any [[Dispensary|dispensaries]] or hospitals.<br />
<br />
==Post office==<br />
Taruana has a post office, which was established in 1993. Since then, it has served the villagers under the control of BPM Gurmail Singh Sidhu.<br />
<br />
Apart from basic mail services, the post office also provides other services like bill payment, saving accounts, and fixed deposits.<br />
