The correct option is C 3 only
The onset of monsoon in India occurs in May. The ITCZ is related with withdrawal of the westerly jet stream from its position over the North Indian plains. During the Southwest monsoon, if rain fails to occur for one or more weeks, it is known as break in the monsoon whereas October heat is related to retreating monsoon. By the end of September, the Southwest monsoon becomes weak and is marked by clear skies and rise in temperature.
