Option 4 : Aravalli does not act as a barrier to the southwest monsoon. 

  • Generally, hills or mountains act as barriers to southwest monsoon and that is why rainfall takes place in most of the parts of India. 
  • Aravalli Hills is lying parallel to the direction of flow of the Southwest Monsoon and that is why it cannot act as a barrier to the southwest monsoon. 
  • That is why Rajasthan does not receive enough rainfall and remains dry.
