These Monsoon showers have been attributed to the presence of a cyclonic circulation which is currently persisting over Kutch and adjoining Southwest Rajasthan region.

Along with this, a trough is also running from Northwest Rajasthan region. Thus, the combined effect of these systems has resulted in good rains over many parts of Rajasthan.
