According to the advancing of monsoon in India, which of the following cities receives rainfall after 15 June every year?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The Correct answer is option 4 i.e. Jaipur.
According to the advancing monsoon in India, Jaipur receives rainfall after 15 June every year. The monsoon generally arrives in the southern parts of India, such as Bengaluru and Hyderabad, by early June, and progresses northwards. Imphal in Northeast India also receives monsoon rains relatively early. However, the northwestern region, including Jaipur in Rajasthan, experiences the monsoon later, typically after mid-June, around or after 15 June. This delayed arrival is due to the Thar Desert’s dry conditions and the monsoon’s gradual movement from the south towards the northwest.
