Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Irrigated areas are also known as Canal Colonies.
Canals were constructed in West Punjab to irrigate a sizable semi-arid land. As a result, the land could grow wheat and rice, making it productive for export. Numerous peasants were drawn to the newly bountiful land, and the area came to be known as the colony of the Canal. They were developed to grow cotton and wheat for export. The British Indian government constructed an irrigation canal network in Punjab to turn semi-desert waste into good agricultural land that could grow wheat and cotton for export. People from various parts of Punjab settle here to grow wheat and cotton for export.
