प्रश्न
Mention the geographical reason for each of the followings:
Patna receives heavier rain than Delhi.
उत्तर
The Bay of Bengal branch, which brings rainfall to the northeastern states due to the presence of mountain ranges, sheds its moisture as it travels towards the west. Thus there is a decrease in rainfall as one goes from east to west. Since Patna lies in the lower Ganga valley and Delhi lies further west of Patna, it rains more in Patna than in Delhi.
