Climates of India
This chapter of the Class 7 NCERT social science textbook, Exploring Society: India and Beyond, maps the many climates found within one country. Learners trace the southwest and retreating monsoons, compare hot deserts, cold mountains, wet coasts and dry interiors, and study how seasons shape farming calendars, clothing and festivals. Simple weather data, maps and local observation show how temperature, rainfall and altitude combine, and why understanding climate helps India plan water, crops and daily life.
