During the south west monsoon season, the Himalayas play an important role in determining the amount of rainfall received by several places in the country. They act as a barrier to the South west monsoon winds coming from the Indian Ocean. These winds when strike the mountains bring rainfall to the northern plains. Without the Himalayas, the northern Indian plains would have been barren lands.
The ‘Purvanchal’ which are the eastern extensions of the Himalayas, act as a barrier to the Bay of Bengal branch of the Monsoon winds and results in orographic rainfall in north eastern parts of the country.
