Answer:
Which part of India gets orographic rainfall and why? Orographic rainfall occurs when warm, humid air strikes an orographic barrier (a mountain range). Because of the initial momentum, the air is forced to rise. As the moisture laden air gains height, condensation sets in, and soon saturation is reached.

Orographic rainfall occurs when rain bearing winds strike against the mountains and result in precipitation on the windward side of the mountains. In India,rainfall is orographic in nature as heavy rains occurs on the windward slopes of the Western Ghats and scanty rainfall on the leeward side.
