Detailed Solution

The above statement is correct. Chennai is the capital city of the state of Tamil Nadu. It was earlier named Madras. It is on the Coromandel coast, a part of the Eastern Coastal Plain. It is the sixth Indian city in terms of population. Located on the southeastern coast of India, Chennai comes under the tropical zone. It experiences a tropical wet and dry climate. Though located close to the equator, Chennai is in a coastal area. This greatly influences the city’s climate making it moderate. The city gets most of its rainfall from the northeast monsoons from October to December. The city water reserves rely entirely on the monsoons as no rivers flow through Chennai. Thus, the average temperature of Chennai is moderate, between 24°-25° C in December and January.
