Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -It usually happens between April and September. As winter ends, warm, moist air from the southwest Indian Ocean blows toward countries like India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, and Myanmar. The summer monsoon brings a humid climate and torrential rainfall to these areas. India and Southeast Asia depend on the summer monsoon.

Detailed explanation-2: -Complete Answer: Southwest monsoon winds are responsible for bringing in rainfall in India. The heating of land and sea during the summer months is the mechanism which sets the stage for the monsoon winds to drift towards the Indian subcontinent.

Detailed explanation-3: -In winter, a sea of arrows representing the northeast monsoon blows south down the coasts of Arabia and Africa from India and Persia. In summer and fall, the winds reverse course, returning up the coast to the north Indian Ocean.
