Answer 1

Answer:

A is false but R is true.​

Western coastal plain receives more rainfall than eastern coastal plain because western coastal plain lies on the windward side of western Ghats and gets rainfall more than 200 cm but Eastern coastal plain lies on the leeward side of the Western Ghats and gets a little rainfall (50 to 100 cm).

Orographic precipitation is well known on oceanic islands, such as the Hawaiian Islands or New Zealand, where much of the rainfall received on an island is on the windward side, and the leeward side tends to be quite dry, almost desert-like, by comparison.
