Question
Given below are two statements, in which one is labelled
as Assertion (A) and the other as Reason (R): Assertion (A): During the winter season, most part of India is dry. Reason (R): Most parts of the country are under the influence of the northeast trade winds during the winter season. Select the correct answer using the code given below:Solution
• Assertion (A) is true because, during the winter season, most of India experiences dry conditions. This is primarily because of the northeast trade winds that bring dry air from the land to the sea, preventing rainfall. • Reason (R) is also true, and it correctly explains that the dry conditions in India during the winter season are a result of the northeast trade winds. These winds are dry in nature and do not bring moisture, leading to dryness across the country. Therefore, the correct answer is (a), as both Assertion (A) and Reason (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
