3. The Indian landscape, its animal and plant
life, the agriculture calendar and the life of
the people including their festivities and
economic conditions revolve around the
monsoon. Year after year, the people of India
from North to South and from East to West
eagerly await the arrival of the monsoon.
These monsoon winds bind the whole country
by providing water to set the agricultural
activities.
Thus, in view of the above
the monsoon
is
considered as a unifying bond for
this subcontinent. Monsoon also effect
two major factors of the country• Climate

4. The temperature and rainfall are the two most
important elements of climate. In respect of both these
elements, land and sea contrast in the plateau region
plays a significant role. It is the height and the direction
of the mountain ranges that causes monsoon winds shed
their moisture in the northern plains. As the monsoon
winds rise in the Indian ocean, the Himalayan ranges do
not allow these winds to leave the Indian subcontinent.
Instead the Himalayas allow these winds to exercise an
all embracing and unifying on weather conditions all
over India. The monsoon winds keep the whole India warm
through their moderating influence on climate. As
such, obviously the flora, fauna and the
entire ecosystem of these areas are heavily dependent on
the Monsoon. it has its positive
and negative effects also.

5. Nevertheless, the unifying influence of the monsoon
on the Indian subcontinent is quite perceptible or
noticeable. The seasonal alteration that is the change
of the wind system and the associated weather
conditions provide a rhythmic cycle of seasons Even
the uncertainties of rain and uneven distribution are
very much typical or usual features of the
monsoons.
These monsoons winds bind the whole country by
providing water to set agricultural activities in
motion. The river valleys which carry this water
also unite as a single river valley unit.

6. Monsoons have the potential to be extremely violent
weather systems. Drought-stricken land can be
suddenly drenched with several inches of rain.
Property-damaging hail is common during the
monsoon season, as are wildfires started when
lightning strikes without producing rain in an area.
Arroyos and canyons are prone to flooding as runoff
from higher areas rush to carry excess rainfall
through to lower areas. In areas that were burned by
wildfires in previous years, mudslides and soil
erosion can cause widespread damage to crops, homes
and roads.

7. The rhythmic cycle of seasons, keeps the human, animal
and plant life are almost similar to that the whole of
India. The monsoon also plays a significant role in
celebrating festivals, folk dances, music, and other
aspects of the cultural life of the people and their
dress. Monsoon is most awaited weather in India. Here
we detailed the Monsoon and its effects on Indians life
in present as well as future life. Monsoon effects on
various states and also charm of the Monsoon in brief
detail. The imagination of one getting wet in nice
drizzles from sky is a beautiful stuff. No matter how
bad is your mood a good drizzle can swing that surely
with some coffee and snacks. If you are in little heavy
mood take a shower in this rain drizzles and enjoy the
weather.

8. As monsoon rhythm revolves around any region, it
affects whole of the life living
there, birds, animals, humans, etc. Thus, due to such
characteristics, monsoon is considered as the unifying
bond. Seasonal rhythm prevails in the country. If
affects our life in a big way.
There are many festivals celebrated during this season.
The effects seen on
land, vegetation, animals, agricultural and economic
activities are a matter of celebration for the
agricultural sector of India. The major festivals
celebrated are Ganesh chaturthi, Naag panchami, Raksha
bandhan, Onam, Rath yatras, Teej and many more.

10. The term "unifying bond"
implies an attachment or
affection of something with
another. Such conditions are
formed when we talk of
monsoon's attachment with
India. The cold winds from
north side do not strike
India as there exists a
natural barrier of the
