The population was 2,016, most of whom were hinduss. The hindu's 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]
