Solution

The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion.
The assertion is correct, as the wind flows from higher pressure zone to lower pressure zone and pressure is directly related to temperature.
As a matter of fact the higher pressure zone of air is at $30^{o}$ N. So the reason is the correct explanation of the assertion.
