Which river forms the Dhuandhar Waterfall in Madhya Pradesh?
Narmada
The Dhuandhar Falls are near Bhedaghat in Jabalpur district, Madhya Pradesh.
Here the Narmada river plunges through the famous marble rocks, and the spray looks like smoke — “Dhuandhar” means a “smoke cascade”.
The Ken, Chambal and Betwa also flow through Madhya Pradesh, but none of them forms the Dhuandhar Falls; the Ken, for instance, flows through Panna and forms the Raneh Falls.
Hence, Narmada.
