Answer the following question in brief
State two ways in which the Himalayas act as a climate barrier.
उत्तर
Two ways in which the Himalayas act as a climate barrier are:
- Himalayas prevent the cold winds of Central Asia from entering India. This prevents India from experiencing very cold winters.
- The Himalayas also prevent the rain-bearing monsoon winds from leaving the country, thus allowing the country to receive sufficient rainfall.
