What is Cherrapunji famous for?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Very heavy rainfall

Cherrapunji, also called Sohra, is in Meghalaya in northeastern India. It is famous for receiving extremely heavy rainfall, especially during the monsoon season. Its location near the Khasi Hills helps moist air from the Bay of Bengal rise over the hills, cool, and condense into rain. This geographical setting makes the area one of the best-known examples of very high rainfall in school geography. Rainfall records can vary by year and nearby places, but that does not change the standard identification used in this question.

Choice B is correct because Cherrapunji is associated with very heavy rainfall. Choice A gives the opposite condition, while C and D describe phenomena or climates that do not identify the place. For revision, connect Cherrapunji with Meghalaya, the Khasi Hills, moist monsoon winds, and orographic rainfall. The important point is not merely memorizing a name, but understanding that hills force moisture-filled air upward and encourage condensation and intense rain.
