HC Deb 30 July 1907 vol 179 c759
MR. REES

I beg to ask the Secretary of State for India what was the selling price per acre of land now irrigated by the Chenab Canal before the construction of that work of irrigation, and what is the present selling price.

MR. MORLEY

Before the canal was made the land was practically valueless. Ten pounds an acre is now paid for land of fair average quality irrigated from the canal.
