Solution

The correct option is B

Wind will flow towards the Bay of Bengal from Bengaluru


Wind will flow from Bengaluru towards the Bay of Bengal. Note that the Bay of Bengal near Chennai has a lower pressure than the region around Bengaluru. Thus, wind will flow from higher pressure area in Bengaluru eastwards towards Chennai and the Bay of Bengal.
