Detailed Solution

The Indian Desert is also known as the Thar Desert. It is 77,000 square miles in size. It is surrounded to the west by the irrigated Indus River plain, north and northeast by the Punjab Plain, and southeast by the Aravalli Range. The subtropical desert climate results from sustained high pressure and subsidence at such a latitude. The name 'Thar' comes from the word thul, which refers to the region's sand ridges in general.
