The reason why there is no rainfall in Rajasthan because the Alavari Range is parallel to the south-west wind which comes from Arabian sea with moisture.Due to the parallel figure of alavari range the south-west wind doesn't meet with it to shade rainfall in Rajasthan.
Rajasthan receives less rainfall because it is a desert region and besides aravalli range lies parallel to the rain bearing monsoon winds and doesn't have any mountain that can obstruct these winds..

Rajasthan do not recieve rainfall in monsoon because Aravali Range is situated parallel to monsoon winds and hence winds do not strike with aravali and not bring rainfall.

Because of the harsh weather in rajasthan thick walls prevent the house from being too heated during summer and also keep the house warm during cold winters. Houses have flat roofs because Rajasthan receives very less rainfall so there no use in having slanting roofs and also they help to retain water to keep the house cool...!!
1) This is because the Aravali Range in Rajasthan lie parallel to the Arabian Sea branch of South West Monsoons, and do not offer any obstruction to the rain bearing winds. 2) The second reason is that the hot climate of Rajasthan increases the moisture holding capacity of the rain bearing winds, and does not allow it to shed its moisture in Rajasthan. - Fez :)
Rajasthan ka Bikaner jila Bharat mein sabse kam varsha wala area hota hai. Yahaan annual rainfall lagbhag 10-30 cm hoti hai.
Rajasthan and gujrat generally fall parallel to the arabian branch of the southwest monsoon. they do not cause rainfall in this region as aravali hills fall parallel to these monsoon winds and do not cut as a barrier. the windward side of the western ghats recieve heaviest rainfall due to instant ascent of the southwest monsoon winds on the slopes of the western ghats and shed maximum moisture there. when they cross the wind ward slopes and came on the leedward side they become dry and cause very little rainfall. hence these areas remain rainless or recieve very scanty rainfall.
Antarctica and the Atacama Desert receive virtually no precipitation each year and are the two driest regions on earth.
As far as major cities are concerned, Delhi, Bangalore and Hyderabad receive comparatively less rain. Chennai doesn't receive much rain at all during the southwest monsoon, as the south of India (the states of Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, and Kerala) gets most of its rainfall from the northeast monsoon, from October to December. The rain there can be very intense during this time. Areas that receive the least rain and are most suited for travel during the monsoon include the desert state of Rajasthan, the Deccan Plateau on the eastern side of the Western Ghats mountain range, and Ladakh in far north India.
