HC Deb 14 June 1976 vol 913 c7W
36. Mr. Younger

asked the Minister for Overseas Development whether his Department has given any aid to the Government of India for the Furkha Dam scheme; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Judd

I assume that the hon. Member is referring to the Farakka barrage scheme in West Bengal. My Ministry has not given any aid to the Indian Government for this scheme.
