Detailed Solution

Barmar records the highest temperature in India.
The climate and temperature variations experienced by different places in India are evident. The uneven topography, latitudinal extent, surrounding water bodies, and the monsoons, influence these variations. Barmer is a part of the Thar desert in western Rajasthan, recording the highest temperatures in India during summer. It is a land-locked area with no water bodies to moderate the climate. The Aravalli mountain ranges lie parallel to the wind direction; therefore, the southwest monsoons do not cause any rainfall in the region. The lack of rainfall and distance from the sea contributes to the high temperature in the region. Leh in Ladakh records the lowest temperature in India owing to its high altitude and distance from the sea.
