Monsoonal rainfall in Rajasthan MCQ - Practice Questions with Answers

Solve 1 Monsoonal rainfall in Rajasthan questions for RAS/RPSC preparation.

Practice questions

Q1Given below are two statements: Statement (I): Rajasthan gets rainfall from the monsoons of the Bay of Bengal and the Arabian Sea. Statement (II): The Bay of Bengal monsoon passes through Rajasthan without giving much rainfall to it because there is no proper obstruction in its path. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.

A Statement I is incorrect, but Statement II is correct.
B Both Statement I and Statement II are correct.
C Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect.
D Statement I is correct, but Statement II is incorrect.
Explanation

Rajasthan receives monsoonal rainfall from both the Arabian Sea branch and the Bay of Bengal branch, so the first statement is correct. The second statement is not correct as framed because the Bay of Bengal branch is a significant source of rainfall in eastern and south-eastern Rajasthan; it is not simply a branch that passes through the state without giving much rain. The answer saying the first statement is wrong fails on the basic rainfall source. The answer saying both are correct accepts an overbroad second statement. The answer saying both are wrong rejects a correct rainfall fact.
