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. |
