Solution :-
In western Coast of India, Western slopes of Western Ghats, Kerala, Goa, coastal areas of Karnataka, Lakshadweep Islands and Mumbai are the areas which receive more than 400 cm of rainfall annually. These parts receive heavy rainfall from the Arabian Sea branch of monsoon. These areas lie in the windward side of the Western Ghats. The Western Ghats is a mountain range, which runs parallel to the Western Coast of India. The windward side of the cascaded mountains, the side of the mountains exposed to monsoon winds, receives more rains than that compared to isolated mountains.
