The Jats of Nawada Kalan migrated from Punjab during Baba Baghel Singh Dhaliwal's assault in Delhi, also known as "Dilli Fateh," in 1783. This village belonged to the Maniyar Muslims before the migration of the Jats to this village. There are two Nawadas in Hapur District: one is Nawada Kalan, and the other is Nawada, also known as "Bada Nawada." The Bisla and Sarao Jats first migrated to the village of Dayalpur (Faridabad) and then came to Nawada Kalan. There are also many different communities living in this village: Nai, Dhune, Gadariya, Kumhaar, Brahmin, Chamar, Muslim, Lohar, and Baniya. All communities live peacefully in the village.
