Answer: South-West monsoons
Notes: The period June to September is referred to as the 'Southwest Monsoon' period. Southwest Monsoon period is the principal rainy season for the Indian subcontinent. The southwest monsoon flows from sea to land so it carries more moisture, and therefore causes more rain, than the northeast monsoon.
