INDIAN GEOGRAPHY

Detailed explanation-1: -Since India is located on both sides of the Tropic of Cancer, Srinagar will never be in the Tropical Zone. So, it will never get the vertical rays of the Sun. So, it is the correct option.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Tropic of Cancer is the line that determines whether a city in India can receive vertical sun rays or not. Let’s look at the cities one by one to get the correct answer: Shimla: This is the correct answer. Shimla is never exposed to the sun’s vertical rays because it is located north of the tropic of Cancer.

Detailed explanation-3: -Direct rays are also called vertical rays. The term vertical describes rays that are coming from directly overhead. Because the Earth is round, not all of the Sun’s rays strike the Earth in a vertical, or direct, manner. These less direct rays are called oblique rays.
