Detailed Solution

The above statement is true,
Pahalgam is a town in the disputed region of Jammu and Kashmir. The place is at an altitude of about 2,740 m above the mean sea level. The temperature of a place decreases with an increase in altitude. Pahalgam has short summers and long winters with a moderate climate. Rajasthan is a plain and desert located in the western part of India. The region receives almost direct sun rays, lying near the Tropic of Cancer. The continental type of climate experienced in this region, with very hot summers and very cold winters, is another reason for the high temperatures in Rajasthan. Thus, the altitude factor is the reason for the temperature variations between Pahalgam and Rajasthan, and Pahalgam has less temperature than places in Rajasthan.
