Maharashtra Class 10 Answered

Why does Gujarat and Rajasthan get less rainfall?
Asked by Bhawna | 02 Aug, 2019, 08:48: PM
answered-by-expert Expert Answer

Rajasthan gets scanty rainfall because the state lies in the rain shadow  region of the Aravali Range. The Aravali Range lie parallel to the Arabian Sea branch of South West Monsoon and do not offer any obstruction to the rain bearing winds.

By the time, the Bay of Bengal branch of the South West Monsoon reaches to the western part of the country i.e. Gujarat it does not have sufficient moisture left with to cause rain.

(Please note that South Gujarat receive abundant rainfall. Only north Gujarat receive scanty rainfall).
