What is the distribution of rainfall in India?

Answer»

Rainfall is not evenly distributed across the Indian subcontinent. The fact that one part of the country experiences floods while the other experiences droughts proves unequal rainfall distribution across the country. The average annual rainfall is 120 cm. But the distribution depends on factors like relief features, direction of moisture-laden winds and the location of a place and its distance from the sea. Meghalaya receives more than 800 cm of annual rainfall, while some parts of RajasthanÂreceive only 10 cm of annual rainfall.Â
