All of the regions provided experience orographic rains.
The following regions in India receive Orographic or Relief Rain: Konkan coast, Kanara coast, Malabar coast, West coast of India (Western side), Windward side of the Western Ghats. (Southern side) Windward side of the Garo, Khasi, Jaintia Hills, southern side and southern slopes of the Shivaliks. Orographic Rain:
When the saturated air mass comes across a mountain, it is forced to rise. The rising air expands, the temperature falls, and the moisture is condensed. The principal characteristic of this type of rain is that the windward slopes get more rainfall. After giving rain on the windward side, when these winds reach the other slope, they drop away, and their temperature increases. Then their ability to take in moisture increases and hence, these leeward slopes remain rainless and dry. The region situated on the leeward side is known as the rain-shadow area.
