The construction of Baretha Bund, which spans the Kakund River, was commenced in 1866 and completed in 1897.

This bund plays a crucial role in water management and irrigation.

It eventually debouches into the Gambhir River,[6] exhibiting an easterly flow.

A few kilometers east of Bayana, in the Baretha hills, there is the man-made lake, Kishan Sagar, formed by damming the Kakund River.

This dam is a crucial source of drinking water supply to the city of Bharatpur.
