It affected an area of and a population of 21.5 million. The relief effort—organized by Sir Richard Temple, the newly appointed Lieutenant-Governor of Bengal—was one of the success stories of the famine relief in British India; there was little or no mortality during the famine. ==Relief== As the impending famine came to light, a decision was made at the highest level to save lives at any cost.〔 Rs. 40 million were spent on importing 450,000 tons of rice from Burma.〔, 〕 Another Rs. 22.5 million were spent in organizing relief for 300 million units (1 unit = one person for one day).〔 In addition, for the first time, inspection of villages by the government officials was carried out to identify those in need of aid or employment.〔 In Sir Richard Temple's own description (in a contemporary correspondence), the generous aid allowed the laborers to stay in good physical condition and to return to their fields when the rains finally arrived; their actions put to rest any fears among relief officials that the government handouts were making the laborers "dependent." Road construction became a major project of the famine relief works; the ''Road Cess Act of 1875'', which was enacted just before the famine began,〔"India", ''The Times'', 28 October 1873, 7a.〕 established a fund for the "construction of roads, especially their metaling and bridging."〔 The construction of the Irrawaddy Valley State Railway in Burma, which began in 1874, also provided employment in the earthworks for many famine immigrants from Bengal. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bihar famine of 1873–74」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
