Correct Answer: Bengal and Assam


Solution : The correct answer is Bengal and Assam.

Nor'westers, also known as "Kalbaishakhi" in some regions, are dreaded evening thunderstorms that are commonly seen in the eastern parts of India, especially in the states of West Bengal, Assam, Bihar, Jharkhand, and Bangladesh. These thunderstorms are characterized by strong winds, heavy rainfall, and lightning, and they are often accompanied by hail. Nor'westers typically occur during the pre-monsoon and summer months, bringing relief from the scorching heat but also sometimes causing damage due to their intensity.
