Correct Answer: The presence of low atmospheric pressure over north-west India


Solution : The correct answer is the presence of low atmospheric pressure over North-west India.

Winds blow from high pressure area to low pressure area. Due to differential heating of land and sea low pressure is present over land and high pressure is present over the sea in summers.

Because of the low pressure in North Western India in Tibetan plateau during summer season it attracts the South-east trade winds from the Bay of Bengal region towards it. They are moisture carrying winds which results in Southwest monsoon over India.
