The project envisages construction of a 43.80 m high and 562.50 m long masonry dam across the River Betwa flanked by an earthen dam with a maximum height of 29.5 m and a total length of 10.79 km. In 1990 this dam was given the name "Rani Laxmibai Sinchai Pariyojna".
The project will provide irrigation for 1,380 square kilometres of land in Uttar Pradesh and 1,210 square kilometres in Madhya Pradesh. The installed capacity of the power house will be 45 MW (3 x 15 MW). The costs and benefits of the project are to be shared by the two states equally.
