Detailed Solution

Canal colonies were irrigated areas.
 The British Indian government is building irrigation canals to convert desert waste into fertile agricultural areas that can grow wheat and cotton for export. The Canal Colonies, as the new irrigation canals were called, were settled by farmers from other parts of Punjab. The Punjab areas, after being irrigated with new canals, came to be called "canal colonies." They were created to grow wheat and cotton for export. After being irrigated by modern canals, Punjab's low-lying areas came to be called "canal colonies." A system was established to grow wheat and cotton for export.
