History

Kharwa was a vibrant place during the early 20th century. It was a seat for missionary activities in Malwa. It has a few British-era buildings, including one mission school, a hostel building, and a two huge bungalows. One impressive structure in the village is the "Harcourt Memorial Church", which was built in the early part of the 20th century. In recent years a youth group has revived the mission school, and the hostel now accommodates over 100 children from poor communities, primarily from the Bhanchada caste. As a result, Kharwa has once again become a vibrant community.

Malwa is a historical region of west-central India occupying a plateau of volcanic origin. Geologically, the Malwa Plateau generally refers to the volcanic upland north of the Vindhya Range. Politically and administratively, the historical Malwa region includes districts of western Madhya Pradesh and parts of south-eastern Rajasthan. The definition of Malwa is sometimes extended to include the Nimar region south of the Vindhyas.

The main profession of this village is agriculture. The area also grows opium.

Opium is the dried latex obtained from the opium poppy. Approximately 12 percent of the opium latex is made up of the analgesic alkaloid morphine, which is processed chemically to produce heroin and other synthetic opioids for medicinal use and for illegal drug trade. The latex also contains the closely related opiates codeine and thebaine, and non-analgesic alkaloids such as papaverine and noscapine. The traditional, labor-intensive method of obtaining the latex is to scratch ("score") the immature seed pods (fruits) by hand; the latex leaks out and dries to a sticky yellowish residue that is later scraped off and dehydrated. The word "meconium" historically referred to related, weaker preparations made from other parts of the opium poppy or different species of poppies.
