Solution

Dear Student,
Rajasthan experiences the highest diurnal temperatures in India. The reasons behind this are:
1)Physical features: the sandy soil does not retain moisture, gets cooled down and dried up very rapidly.
2)The distance from the sea leaves the place devoid of moderating influence and there is dryness in the air.
