During the season of retreating monsoons the cyclones are very common in _______________.
Open in App
Solution
The correct option is B Bay of Bengal
During the period of retreating
monsoon, i.e. by the end of October south-west monsoon winds retreat from most
of northern India. The low-pressure area lying over Northwest India is
transferred to the middle of the Bay of Bengal by the end of October. As a
result of these unstable conditions, severe cyclonic storms originate in the
Bay of Bengal. These cyclonic storms strike along the eastern coast of India
causing wide spread rain in the coastal regions.
Hence, option B is the correct
answer.
