प्रश्न
Explain the following :
Jaisalmer receives very less rainfall annually.
उत्तर
The Aravali’s alignment is parallel to the rain-bearing SW monsoon winds, so Jaisalmer does not receive any rain from the Arabian Sea branch of SW monsoon. It is also located in the rain shadow region of the Bay of Bengal branch of SW monsoon. So it does not receive any rain from the Bay of Bengal branch too.
