It is basically a hill that got submerged after the construction of the Hirakud Dam and got converted into a dam. The main attraction of the island is the fact that it is inhabited only by cattle. Since they hardly come in contact with people, the cattle have become wild and are quite bigger in comparison to the normal ones. Most of them are white in color. Villagers living nearby have tried to capture them a number of times, but success has always eluded them.
