Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
In the Indira Gandhi Canal Command Area (IGCCA), the area on the left side of the main canal is at a higher elevation. Therefore, water cannot reach this side naturally by gravity and requires lift irrigation, where water is pumped to irrigate the fields.
The other options are incorrect:
(A) The right side is generally irrigated using gravity flow.
(C) and (D) are vague and do not specifically relate to the canal layout.
(A) The right side is generally irrigated using gravity flow.
(C) and (D) are vague and do not specifically relate to the canal layout.
