Solution

The correct option is D North-eastern monsoon
North-eastern monsoon is recognised as a season by the meteorological department of India. North East monsoon is the weak rain bearing seasonal winds that flow when the South West monsoon retreats from the Indian mainland. They pick-up the moisture mainly from Bay of Bengal and gives rain to many places in India during the months of October and November.
