In 1541 ce, when Sultan Sher Shah Suri was ruling the country after defeating the Moghul emperor Nasir ud-din Muhammad Humayun in the battle of Chausa, the foundation of village KHAIRA DEEH was laid down by Babu Madhav Rai, elder son of Raja Narayan Shah of Kuresar-Naraianpur branch of Mulhan Dikshit family.[4]
Khardiha belongs to Tallukedar Babu Madhav Rai's faimily. In sixth generation of Babu Madhav Rai's descendant elder brother Babu Ugrasen Rai got the zamindari of Kundesar and younger brother Babu Vikram Rai moved to Khardia. That is why in spite of being a small village compared to the nearby Joga Musahib, Awathahi, Gondaur, Kanuaan, Amarupur and Siyadeeh, Khardiha is considered noble and prestigious by neighbouring villages.
