Why is there very less rainfall in Rajasthan? |
|
Answer» The factors given below are responsible for less rainfall in Rajasthan: 1. The Aravalli Mountain Range in Rajasthan lies parallel to the Arabian Sea branch of south western monsoon and it does not offer any obstruction to the rain bearing winds. 2. The hot climate of Rajasthan increases the moisture holding capacity of the rain bearing winds and does not allow them to shed moisture in Rajasthan. 3. The low height of Aravalli Range and very little vegetation there is also responsible for less rainfall. |
