The Hathnikund Barrage is a concrete barrage located on the Yamuna River in Yamuna Nagar district of Haryana state India. It was constructed between October 1996 and June 1999 for the purpose of irrigation. It replaced the Tajewala Barrage 3 km (2 mi) downstream which was constructed in 1873 and is now out of service. The barrage diverts water into the Western and Eastern Yamuna Canals.
