[1] It is surrounded by the villages of Tarakai, Yarhussain, Dagi and Sikandari on its north, west, east south respectively.
As the area is between two natural dund (Streams) so peoples of the time called it Dandoka, This is the view of Archeologist, which is acceptable according to his geographics principles but its a gossip only and wrong information about the history of this village.
According to Mr. Roshan Khan in his famous book, "History of Swabian Pathans" the term Dandoka means "Broken Sword".
But the strong family background history individuals and educated class of this village has rejected the idea of Archeologist and they consider the views of Mr. Roshan Khan to be correct.
On the other hand, according to Mr. Roshan Khan in his famous book, "History of Swabian Pathans" the term Dandoka means "Broken Sword".
The term Dandoqa, is derived from the Tartaric Language, which means "My Broken Sword" which justifies the view of Mr. Roshan Khan.
Today Dandoka, due to its unique geographic location is considered as a separate village from both Dagi and Tarakay.
The Grand Elders of Jaokhels sub cast of Yousafzai Malaks Hashimzai tribes put the foundation of this village after conquering and then buying the lands from the peoples of Dagai by legal payments to them.
Muqarrab Khan who has a prominent personality also do settled down the long lasting wars & battles between the tribes of Dagi and Turlandi.
The Kaka khels, Qurashi and other different small tribes relocate, migrate to dandoka in search of bread and butter.
Jaokhels of Yousafzai Malaks Hashimzai tribes actively participated in the Pakistan Movement in British India.
Due to the affiliation with Nationalist Party ANP most of the local government officials of the region always ignore Dandoka in the development to change the political views and vision of Jaokhel Yousafzai, Malaks, Hashimzai tribes but the said tribes never ever did changes their strong and firm nationalist beliefs, views and vision.
Similarly no steps have been taken by the government officials to provide services of Post office, health, irrigation and drainage etc.
The self-esteem frame of mind individuals belonging to different tribes either Jaokhel Yousafzai Malaks Hashimzai or kaka khel or qurashi do work in their field of expertise to serve and upgrade the life standards of the peoples of this village.
It is hopeful, that a number of developmental works should be launched in the current government so as to improve the life standards of the peoples here.
Nasrullah Khan was succeeded by his son, Malak Abdul Wahab (not an ethnic Malik but by family leading role).
His sudden death in 2002 created a power vacuum for the position of chief in his tribe, but thanks to the good behaviour and skills of his cousin, Haji Khurshid Khan who successfully overcome these difficulties.
His sons and grandsons are now serving in respectable departments like Health, Judiciary, Business, Education, Engineering and Humanitarian Work.
The Jaokhels of Yousafzai Malaks Hashimzai at Dandoqa, live a traditional life dominated by Pakhtoon Culture.
Education has recently made growth in this tribe, with just a single family to have the greater number of graduates in different fields.
The rest of Jaokhels lack any interest in education and that's why literacy ratio is limited to the home of the current chief of tribe only.
Migrated from Kaka Sahib, Nowshehra, to the village Dandoqa.. Kakakhels are the descendants of an individual, Syed Kasteer Gul who was a famous Muslim scholar.
