617

The above sketch is sup-
posititious altogether, but it
shews that at those points where
the canal and east Kalli Nuddi
come in the closest proximity,
I would propose aqueduct lines
for passing the river; these
in the above Diagram are marked
A A , and their number might
be extended to any required amount
adapted to the supply of water
that is available; the country it
will be [re ?]collected claims a theor-
etical right of irrigation on a
belt of five miles from the canal 617
boundaries : a consideration of
this circumstance will lead
to the calculation of how much
water ought to cross the east
Kalli Nuddi so as to irrigate
the lands which come within
this belt; and consequently what
extent of aqueduct is sufficient
for the purpose. The feeders
are shewn by the line B B . The
consecutive line marked B B B
is in prolongation of the main
Rajbuha on the left which I have
before described as commencing
at the head of the Assoffnuggur
falls. The above merely presents
a general view of the lining out
of the Rajbuhas on the left of
the canal, but it may
be workedout into a well combined
and comprehensive series of
channels the waters of which
are in free circulation.
On the right of the canal
and keeping in mind that the
Bolundshuhur and Koel branches
act as irrigating lines for the
country
