Explanation:

Irrigation projects are classified into three categories i.e., major, medium & minor based on the command area:
(i) projects with a command area of more than 10,000 hectares are categorised as major irrigation projects.
(ii) projects with command area less than 10,000 hectares but more than 2,000 hectares are categorised as medium irrigation projects,
(iii) projects with a command area of fewer than 2,000 hectares are categorised as minor irrigation projects.
