Solution

The correct option is D 2,3,4,1
Monsoon starts retreating from western Rajasthan by the first week of September. By the end of September, the winds withdraw from Rajasthan, Gujarat, the Western Ganga Plains, and the Central Highlands. By the beginning of October, the low pressure area gets transferred to northern parts of the Bay of Bengal, and slowly, the northeast trade winds start replacing the monsoon winds.
