In which region does northeast monsoon rainfall have special importance?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Tamil Nadu coast

The direct answer is B: the Tamil Nadu coast receives especially important northeast monsoon rainfall. In India, the southwest monsoon gives much of the country its main rainy season, but during its retreat in October and November, winds reverse and blow from the northeast. These winds cross the Bay of Bengal, collect moisture and bring rain to the southeastern coast, especially Tamil Nadu. Step by step: the southwest monsoon withdraws; winds change direction; they pass over the Bay of Bengal; moisture reaches Tamil Nadu and produces important rain. B is correct. A, western Rajasthan, is mainly a dry region and is not the special northeast-monsoon centre. C, Ladakh, is a cold high-altitude rain-shadow region. D, Jaisalmer, is in arid western Rajasthan and receives very little rain. Memory cue: retreating or northeast monsoon—think Tamil Nadu coast.
