Question

Why is the distribution of water uneven in India? Give reasons.

Answer 1

The distribution of rainfall uneven in India due to the following reasons:
Latitudinal extent: The tropical and coastal regions and plains receive more rainfall than the plateau and desert regions in the interior.

Relief and topography: The windward side of mountains and hills receive more rainfall than leeward side.

The vagaries of the monsoon:The unpredictability of the monsoon alongwith phenomena like monsoon troughs and depressions lead to uneven distribution of rainfall.
