Education

The village has good educational facilities. For primary education, there are two schools: one for girls and other for boys. For higher education, the village has a government high school that provides education up to secondary level. Schooling had previously gone up to eighth class, but was extended up to tenth blass in 2003. The 2003–2004 batch was the first ninth-class batch in the school. Higher education has always been a problem for not only Taruana, but also all the villages in this area, for girls since 2019. An all-girls' college is being founded in Taruana. After 12th class, students have to travel long distances for their education. Boys manage but it becomes very difficult for girls to travel 50 km daily, making it hard for them to pursue higher education in the area.

Religion

Most of the natives of this village are Sikhs, although there are also few Brahmans. A Gurudwara Sahib is located at the north end of the village. People go to Gurudwara Sahib every morning to be a part of the morning Ardas. Apart from Gurudwara Sahib, there is a Dera of Baba Sarabh Dyal Ji. Baba Sarabh Dyal Ji was a famous saint.
