Statement B :Manali receives a lot of rain and snowfall.

Choose the correct option :

The correct option is A is incorrect, but B is correct.

Let us analyze the statements step by step:

Statement A: "In Manali, houses are constructed with wood, slanting roofs and elevated on strong bamboo pillars."
This statement is incorrect.
In Manali (which is a hilly area in Himachal Pradesh), houses are made of stone or wood with slanting roofs to allow rain and snow to slide off easily. However, houses elevated on strong bamboo pillars are characteristic of regions with heavy rainfall and flooding, such as Assam, not Manali.

Statement B: "Manali receives a lot of rain and snowfall."
This statement is correct.
Manali is a high-altitude hill station in Himachal Pradesh and receives substantial rainfall during the monsoons as well as heavy snowfall during winter.

Thus, Statement A is incorrect while Statement B is correct.
