The Murrum Silli Dam (now Babu Chhotelal Shrivastav Dam) is an impressive feat of engineering located in Chhattisgarh's Dhamtari District. Built during the British Raj era (1914-1923) under the supervision of Governor Madam Silli, it stands as a testament to early 20th-century innovation. This earth-fill embankment dam on the Sillari River was the first in Asia to utilize siphon spillways, a technological marvel at the time. Its primary purpose remains irrigation, and it's easily accessible – just 95 km from Raipur. And 45km away from KANKER
