उत्तर
Two important characteristics of the Southwest monsoon rainfall are:
- It is influenced by the mountains and relief features of the country. For example, the western slopes of the Western Ghats get heavy rainfall while the eastern slopes get scanty rainfall as the latter lies on the leeward side of the Western Ghats.
- Monsoon rainfall in India is unevenly distributed in the country. While Meghalaya receives more than 200 cm of rainfall, the western parts of Rajasthan and Punjab get only up to 50-80 cm of rainfall annually.
