Rainfall in these areas can indeed exceed 1000 centimeters annually. **Statement 2: Ladakh and most western Rajasthan receive rainfall above 150 cm.** Incorrect-. Ladakh and most parts of western Rajasthan are known for their arid climate. Ladakh, being a cold desert in the rain shadow region of the Himalayas, receives very little precipitation, typically less than 10 cm annually. Western Rajasthan, being a hot desert, also receives very low annual rainfall, well below 150 cm. Thus, Statement 1 is correct, and Statement 2 is incorrect.
