short note on :- the Indian desert.

Answer 1

1. The Great Indian Desert lies to the west of the Aravalli range. 


2. It largely covers a major region of the state of Rajasthan. 


3. It receives very low rainfall i.e. below 150 mm per year and therefore it is a dry region. 


4. The soil is generally sandy to sandy-loam in texture. 


5. It has arid climate with low vegetation cover.

Answer 2

The Indian Desert

→It lies towards the western margins of the Aravali Hills.

→This region gets scanty rainfall which is less than 150 mm in a year. Hence, the climate is arid and vegetation is scanty.

The Thar Desert :-

• The Thar desert extends across Gujarat, Haryana and Punjab; and covers more than 60% of the geographical area of Rajasthan. The region is also called as ‘MARUSTHALI’.

• Luni is the seasonal river and gets very little rainfall.

• It has an arid climate and vegetation is sparse.

• Ghaggar flows through Rajasthan and disappears at the heart of the Thar desert.
