Why do you think the sun's rays would be direct on the Great Nicobar Islands or on the Jammu and Kashmir state?

The sun's rays are more direct on the Great Nicobar Islands because they are located closer to the equator, where sunlight strikes the Earth at a more perpendicular angle throughout the year. In contrast, Jammu and Kashmir, situated at a higher latitude, experiences more oblique sunlight, especially during winter months, leading to less direct rays. This difference in latitude significantly affects the intensity and angle of sunlight received in these regions.
