Detailed Solution

The above statement is trure.
Aravalli is one of the oldest mountain ranges in the western part of India.
Aravalli is mainly spread from Haryana to Gujarat and covers parts of Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh.
They run from northeast to southwest and for this reason, they come parallel to the Arabian Sea branch of the southwest monsoon winds. Therefore, they are not able to deliver rain in parts of Rajasthan.
This makes most of Rajasthan around Aravallis dry and semi-arid with water scarcity.
