Town in Uttar Pradesh's Sonbhadra district known for the Hindalco aluminium plant and the Rihand Dam, which sits at its edge. The dam creates a large reservoir and places Renukoot directly on the water, with the Vindhya hills rising nearby. The town sits close to the borders of four states — Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Bihar, and Madhya Pradesh — giving it a crossroads character in eastern Uttar Pradesh.
