Question

why is the western part of india a desert region

Answer 1

Answer:

The western part of Rajasthan is a desert region because :

• The south-west monsoon winds blow parallel to the Aravalli and are thus not obstructed by them and therefore, the rainfall is low in Rajasthan.

• Secondly, the Aravallis are low residual hills and thus do no not obstruct the westerlies and therefore the rainfall is low.
