In Class 9 Geography, under the chapter Climate, students study the distribution of rainfall across India. The topic explains how rainfall varies from region to region, identifies areas receiving very heavy, moderate, or low rainfall, and relates these patterns to factors such as relief features, monsoon winds, and distance from the sea.

Which statement correctly analyses the risk of high rainfall?
Correct answer: B
When high rainfall occurs in a short period, the soil may not absorb water fast enough, causing waterlogging and flooding. Excess surface runoff can also carry away fertile topsoil and increase soil erosion. Option A is incorrect because heavy rainfall is not always beneficial. Exam tip: While writing effects of rainfall, connect excessive rain with flooding, waterlogging and soil erosion.
