Question
October and November months give more rainfall to :
Options:
A .  Chota Nagpur Plateau
B .  Coromandal Coast
C .  Malwa Plateau
D .  Eastern Hills
Answer: Option B
Answer: (b)
The Coromandel Coast of Tamil Nadu receives heavy rainfall from the retreating monsoon winds as the retreating winds are moisture-laden. It falls in the rain shadow of the Western Ghats and receives a good deal less rainfall during the summer southwest monsoon, which contributes heavily to rainfall in the rest of India.
The region averages 800 mm/year, most of which falls between October and December.
