Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

The question asks which climate region is not correctly matched with its geographical area. The code "EA’d" refers to an extreme-arid or arid climatic zone, which is found in western Rajasthan (Thar Desert region). This climate type is not present in eastern Rajasthan, so any pairing of "EA’d" with eastern Rajasthan is incorrect.

Other codes such as "DB’w", "DA’w", and "CA’w" correspond to semi-arid and more humid zones in northern, mid, and south-eastern Rajasthan respectively, and their pairings are correct based on standard climate classifications.

To verify, refer to the official climate-zoning map or meteorological classification guide used in your syllabus; compare the letter codes with the mapped zones to confirm each pairing.
