Solution

Jet streams influence India’s climate. During winter, the westerly jet stream dominates the North Indian Plains, while the easterly jet stream drives tropical depressions across India. Depressions significantly affect monsoon rainfall distribution across the subcontinent. The most rainfall happens along the path of these depressions.
