Question
Which of the following does not have an influence over the climate in India ?
Options:
A .  Ocean currents
B .  Presence of Indian ocean
C .  Monsoons
D .  Nearness to equator
Answer: Option A
Answer: (a)
India’s geography and geology are climatically pivotal: the Thar Desert in the northwest and the Himalayas in the north work in tandem to effect a culturally and economically break-all monsoonal regime.
As Earth’s highest and most massive mountain range, the Himalayan system bars the influx of frigid katabatic winds from the icy Tibetan Plateau and northerly Central Asia.
Most of North India is thus kept warm or is only mildly chilly or cold during winter; the same thermal dam keeps most regions in India hot in summer. Ocean current do not any role in the climate of India.
