Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
The continuous evaporation of water from the porous walls of the earthen pot lowers the temperature of the water inside the pot. The earthen pot has numerous small pores on its walls. Some of the water constantly passes out through these pores. This is due to the moisture level present in the atmosphere that the water evaporates out of the pores or holes. In summer, the moisture level is very low in the atmosphere, so evaporation occurs very fast, due to which the water kept inside the pot becomes cool.
