However the project has been shelved for now due to lack of co-operation from the state government in Madhya Pradesh.A gotmar fair (stone Througing on one village to another) is also organized every year on its bank.

The river originates through a convergence of several rivulets and streams flowing down the hill slopes situated around Chilhati village in the Betul District in Madhya Pradesh at an altitude of 762m.

The other, longer of the two streams, flows out from the Borgaon Dam, runs parallel to NH69, and merges with Jam river at Teegaon.

Here the river widens out and continues its run southeast of the town receiving another tributary on its left bank near the village Chichkheda.

Just before reaching the village Jam, it receives its largest tributary River Sarpini.
