It is the only dam that has been designated as 'Dam of national importance' from West Bengal by Central Water Commission of Government of India. The road over the dam is 11 kilometres (6.8 mi) in length. In the middle, there is a small hillock called Paresnath hill where several statues of Jain and Hindu deities are kept in the open air. These statues were recovered during digging while the dam was built. There is another Jain statue lying at the bottom of the Pareshnath hill.
