Detailed Solution

Mawsynram in the southern ranges of the Khasi hills receives the highest rainfall worldwide.
The most rain occurs at Mawsynram, India. It is regarded as the wettest site on Earth, receiving an average of 11,872 millimetres (467.4 in) of rainfall annually. Due to its location on the "southern slopes of the Khasi highlands" and the presence of hills on three sides, "Mawsynram" experiences the "greatest rainfall in the world." The mountains obstruct the wind coming from the southwest, which causes the bay of Bengal monsoons to stick to this location. Mawsynram is a paradise for rain lovers since it is perpetually wet.
