Give reasons:

Seasonal reversal of wind direction takes place over the Indian sub-continent.

In winters, the sun moves toward the south, the low pressure channel over the northern plains becomes feebler causing the monsoon wind to blow from northeast to south during this period. During summers, low pressure area develops in the interior of Asian continent impacting the North-Western India. Because of this sea begin to blow toward the landmasses. The shift in the progress of monsoon combined with the variation in season causes reversal of wind direction in the Indian sub-continent.
