Correct Answer - Option 1 : East to west

The correct answer is East to west.

  • Bay of Bengal current is the main reason of rainfall in West Bengal occurs due to the summer monsoon. The summer monsoon normally arrives in the South Bengal during 5 - 10 June.
  • 75% of the total rainfall in India occurs due to the South-west monsoons.
  • Southwest monsoon is the rain-bearing seasonal winds that flow from the Arabian Sea to the mainland of India from the South-West direction.
  • The monsoon season stretches from June to September.
  • The average annual rainfall varies in the different parts of the state.
    • The northern region receives heavy rainfall, ranging from about 200 to 400 cm.
    • The coastal areas, Gangetic plains, and the central parts of the state receive about 150-200 cm of rainfall.
  • With the arrival of the monsoons, low pressures in the Bay of Bengal region generally lead to storms in the coastal areas.
