About Proby Thomas Cautley

Sir Proby Thomas Cautley, KCB, was an English engineer and palaeontologist who is best known for having conceived and supervised the construction of the Ganges Canal during East India Company rule in India. The canal stretches some 350 miles between its headworks at Haridwar and, after bifurcation near Aligarh, its confluences with the Ganges river mainstem in Kanpur and the Yamuna river in Etawah. At the time of completion, it had the greatest discharge of any irrigation canal in the world.
