Mahni Khera is a village in North India's state of Punjab, in Sri Muktsar Sahib district. The majority of the residents are Sikh and of a variety of castes.

Etymology

Mahni Khera was named after the Muslim leader of the village, Muhammad Mahni Khan.

The majority of the people of Mahnikhera are Jatt and Sikh, as well as the people who migrated from Pakistan during the partition of 1947. Many of the residents of Mahni Khera have to leave their village in 1947, but they still live in the hearts of old villagers.
