Solution

Kanpur is hotter than Mumbai due to the distance from the sea.

Explanation:

Kanpur is hotter than Mumbai because Kanpur is far from the sea, so it doesn’t get the cooling effect of sea breezes. Land heats up faster and more than water does, making inland areas like Kanpur hotter than coastal cities like Mumbai, where the sea moderates temperatures.
