Rajasthan is essentially a desert zone. It has dwelled in the centers at a very distance from the sea. There are limited vegetation and substantially less rain. Tropical and arid blows call 'loo' blows here due to the growth of a low-pressure zone. This generates the heat to rise to a much high level. Jammu and Kashmir due to its spot at a towering altitude level have a less heat gain. As the altitude rises, the temperature drops down.
