Q.

Which of the following is the area of lowest pressure over Indian subcontinent during the hot dry weather season?

A. RannofKachchh
B. Rajasthan
C. North-West India
D. Meghalaya
Answer» C. North-West India
Explanation: The southwestern summer monsoons occur from June through September. The Thar Desert and adjoining areas of the northern and central Indian sub-continent heats up considerably during the hot summers. This causes a low pressure area over the northern and central Indian subcontinent. To fill this void, the moisture-laden winds from the Indian Ocean rush in to the subcontinent.
