Census 2011:-[1] Various communities lived in Borunda village, including the locally dominant Rajput and Charan.

[2] Post-independence, the village pulled together under the long time leadership of Chandidan Detha, the long-time Sarpanch of Borunda.

[2][3] Starting in 1948, an innovating group of farmers centering on the Detha family begun using a large diesel- operated tubewell going down 100–150 feet.

[5] In 1970s, whereas in other regions of Jodhpur, scattered plots were being irrigated through Persian wheels or tanks constructed long ago by local rulers in Raj era, in Borunda the entire village floated on water due to adoption of tubewells.

[2] In 1961, the resulting prosperity of Borunda led to the foundation of Rupayan Sansthan by Vijaydan Detha and Komal Kothari.
