    Question

    The place of India which does not have tropical evergreen forest is

    A.

    Eastern part of Western Ghats

    B.

    Western part of Western Ghats

    C.

    Andhaman and Nicobar islands

    D.

    Eastern part of subtropical Himalayas

    Correct option is A

    Correct Answer: (A) Eastern part of Western Ghats

    Explanation:

    • Tropical evergreen forests require very high annual rainfall (generally above 200 cm), high humidity, and no marked dry season.
    • In the Western Ghats:
      • Western slopes face the Arabian Sea and receive heavy rainfall from the South-West Monsoon, supporting lush tropical evergreen forests.
      • Eastern slopes lie in the rain-shadow area and receive comparatively less rainfall (100–200 cm or less), which supports moist deciduous forests instead of evergreen forests.

    Information Booster:

    • Regions with Tropical Evergreen Forests in India:
      1. Western slopes of the Western Ghats (Kerala, Karnataka, Goa, Maharashtra)
      2. Andaman & Nicobar Islands
      3. North-Eastern states (Assam, Meghalaya, Arunachal Pradesh, Nagaland, Manipur, Mizoram, Tripura)
      4. Foothills of the Eastern Himalayas
    • Not found in: Eastern slopes of the Western Ghats, rain-shadow regions, Thar desert, Ladakh, and other arid/semi-arid areas.
