A series of earthen dams have been built across seasonal choes to create a number of large ponds near Kmballah village that lies on the Parwallah – Tikkar road that links the Tikkar tals directly to Raipur Rani without first having to negotiate the climb to Morni. A dam overlooks the Guga-Marhi temple at the outskirts of the Kamballah (also Kaimwallah) village.

Another freshly constructed earthen dam lies about a kilometre up north-west along the road leading to Tikkar village. The earthen embankment is fairly high and wide and has created a pond of considerable size.  A large amount of mud from the embankment has been washed downstream by the water overflowing through the spill-way.
