Western India has:
A. Winter
B. Rain
C. Hot summers
D. Humid climate

Answer 1

Hint: The climate is the sum total of the weather which shows the condition and the variation over a large area for a long period of time.
India's unique geography and geology strongly influence its climate in particular with the Himalayan ranges in the North and Thar Desert in the Northwest

Complete answer:
Weather describes the day-to-day meteorological conditions such as wind, temperature, cloudiness, moisture, rainfall, etc which affects a place or a region whereas Climate is the actual weather usually analyzed and studied over a 30 years period for a particular region and time. The basic elements of weather are wind, temperature, air pressure, precipitation, and moisture.
Western India comprises states of Rajasthan, Gujarat, Maharashtra and Goa, these are basically loosely defined regions of India, it also includes Union Territories of Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu.
The Western Region of India generally has Hot Summers and this Season lasts from March to Mid June. These months experience Rising Temperatures and Falling Low Air Pressure. The Temperature rises to oppressive levels during Hot Seasons, in the day time, it reaches up to 40 to 48 °C. Though in the night time, the temperature hovers around 20 to 30 °C
The temperature rises as the vertical rays of the Sun reach the Tropic of Cancer - the boundary between the tropics and subtropics, it passes through the central part of the country - At lower elevation, in parts of western India, a strong, hot, and dry wind known as Loo blows in from the west during the daytime with very high temperature up to 45 °C.
Since western India has a predominantly hot and humid climate because of the Gulf of Kutch and the Arabian sea.

Hence, the correct answer is option (D).

Note: The climate of India is a monsoon type, but there are variations in climatic conditions. South and Southeast Asia have this type of climate. There is the least amount of differences in the temperature of night and day in coastal regions, whereas we can see a huge difference in the temperature of day and night in the interior region.
