The dam is 25 metres high and lies across the Kutni River. It acts as a water supply for villages, towns and cities in the area.[1] There is a proposal to increase the supply of water available for irrigation by building a canal on the left bank of Bariarpur, drawing water from the Ken River.

Kutni Island Resort is nearby[2] in Khajwa.
