Matatila Dam, Hydroelectric dam in Lalitpur district, India
Matatila Dam is a hydroelectric structure on the Betwa River at the border between Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh. The facility consists of massive concrete walls with sluice gates and control systems to regulate water flow.
Engineers completed construction in 1958 as a joint project between the two states. The work aimed to secure irrigation and drinking water supply for several districts.
The dam serves multiple communities across Jhansi, Jalaun, Hamirpur, and Gwalior districts, supporting their agricultural practices and water requirements.
Visitors reach the site via regional roads, with the months between September and May offering the best travel conditions. Accommodation can be found in surrounding towns across the region.
The reservoir spreads across small hills and forms an expansive water surface in an otherwise dry landscape. This water volume supplies households in four different districts with drinking water.
