Dehra is a quiet and prosperous village located far away from the noise of the city and traffic. In the recent years, all modern facilities have emerged here while still maintaining its natural beauty and charm. This is the true place for a retreat from the busy life of the city.

Dehra is a true example of India's economic development. Until 2000, there were no phone or electricity in this village. Even in late 90s, the only mode of transportation were 'horse-carriages'. It has a primarily school (till grade 5th) that lacked even the very basic facilities.
