Reasonably convincing evidences of neotectonic activities in the Central Narmada Valley have come to light. The geomorphic investigation of litho-sections at Bedhaghat, near Jabalpur and Siddhaghat highlights the occurrence of such event in geologically younger times. The integration of observations has further helped in understanding the genesis and dating the waterfall at Bedhaghat.
