The state receives an average annual rainfall of over 12,000 mm, which is the highest in India. The hilly terrain of Meghalaya is also a major factor in the formation of waterfalls. The rivers in Meghalaya flow through steep gorges and valleys, which causes them to drop over cliffs and form waterfalls.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are incorrect because:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Option b) Melting glaciers is not a major factor in the formation of waterfalls in Meghalaya.
