Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
The Indian climate is heavily dependent on the monsoon winds. A monsoon is a seasonal phenomenon associated with reversing the direction of the winds during a particular year.
Monsoon is essential to the Indian economy and Indians, especially the farmers. India is an economically agricultural-based country. Lakhs of farmers' lives depend on it, as most do not have a proper irrigation system. It accounts for 60 per cent of irrigation in India and determines the yield percentage of the major crops such as rice, sugarcane and wheat. The monsoon rainfall contributes to the third-fourth of our total rainfall percentage.
The correct statement would be The climate of India is influenced by monsoon winds.
