North-east Monsoon gives rainfall over :

  • A.North-east India
  • B.Tamil Nadu
  • C.Maharashtra
  • D.Jammu and Kashmir

Answer: B

The North-east monsoon gives rainfall over Tamil Nadu.

From October to December the winds reverse and blow from the north-east. Crossing the Bay of Bengal they pick up moisture and bring rain to the south-east coast, so Tamil Nadu (with coastal Andhra Pradesh and south Kerala) receives about half of its annual rainfall in this season.

North-east India and Maharashtra get most of their rain from the south-west monsoon, and Jammu and Kashmir gets winter precipitation from western disturbances, not from the north-east monsoon.
