उत्तर
Lightning is not seen every day during the rainy season because it depends on specific conditions that need to be met for it to occur. Lightning forms when there is a strong buildup of electrical charges within clouds, typically in a thunderstorm. Not every rainstorm has the right conditions for lightning.
For lightning to happen, there needs to be a significant difference in charge between the clouds and the ground, or within the clouds themselves. This occurs during intense thunderstorms with powerful updrafts and turbulence, but many rainy days only involve light rain or less intense weather systems that don't produce the necessary conditions for lightning. Therefore, while rain may occur frequently, lightning is less common.
