Right answer is (a) True

The explanation is: With the help of lining canals can be designed for both in smaller cross section and shorter in length. Steep gradients can be provided as higher velocities are allowed, and flat slopes can also be provided without silting action on lined canals. Therefore, due to these reasons the command area can be increased.
