In which region does the Bay of Bengal branch give more effective rainfall?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Northeastern India

The direct answer is option B: the Bay of Bengal branch gives especially effective rainfall in northeastern India. The southwest monsoon divides into branches after reaching the Indian region. The Bay of Bengal branch carries abundant moisture toward the northeast, including Assam and Meghalaya. Hills and relief force moist air to rise; rising air cools, condenses, and produces heavy rainfall. This is why parts of the northeast are among the wettest areas of India. Option B is correct because the branch is directed toward and strongly affects northeastern India. Option A, Kachchh, is wrong because it lies in western India and generally has a much drier climate. Option C, Ladakh, is wrong because the Himalayas create a rain-shadow effect there and the region is cold and very dry. Option D, western Rajasthan, is wrong because it receives low rainfall and is associated more with the Arabian Sea branch’s limited influence and rain-shadow conditions than with the strongest effect of the Bay branch. Remember: Bay of Bengal branch, northeast, Assam and Meghalaya, heavy rain.
