Climate- India
The Climate of India is an interesting subject of study - it is just as varied as everything else about India- its people, its culture, its topography. India is a composite in many ways - and at the core of this composite trait lies its vast and varied topography. From snow capped mountains to clear streams and vast oceans, from a desert habitat to lush green tropical forests, large plain lands, plateaus and mountains - we have it all and even more.

While we in Kolkata have tropical temperature, Akash in Delhi experiences extreme temperature conditions whereas Sandip from Kerala misses the cold winter days that we have here. There are therefore great variations in climate which is clearly felt in our country. Take for example, the contrast in climate between Delhi in the north and Kerala in the south. While Delhi has continental climate with tremendous heat in summer and unbearable cold in winter, Kerala has tropical climate with uniform distribution of
