History
Around the turn of the 20th century, Bahrauli was described as a large village on the eastern border of the pargana of Mohanlalganj, bordering Haidergarh pargana in Barabanki district. The population was 2,016, most of whom were Kurmis. The Kurmis had formerly been the landowners here but their lands were confiscated by the British for supporting 1857 uprising. At the time, the village was held by the Maharaja of Ayodhya. Bahrauli hosted a weekly market then, and it had a lower primary school.[4]
