Solution
The correct option is B Mahawat
A characteristic feature of the cold weather season over the
northern plains is the inflow of cyclonic disturbances from the west and the northwest.
These low-pressure systems originate over the Mediterranean Sea and West Asia and move into India along with the westerly flow. They cause the
much-needed winter rains over the plains and snowfall in the mountains. This winter
rainfall in northern parts of the country is locally known as 'mahawat'.
