Question:

Define Standard meridian ?

AnsweR:

Standard time is the synchronization of clocks within a geographical area to a single standard time, rather than using solar time or a locally chosen meridian (longitude) to establish a local mean time standard.

• A country may have many longitudes running across it and there is a time gap of 4 minutes between each longitude.

• For example, the time gap between the western point of Gujarat and the easternmost point of Arunachal Pradesh has a time gap of 2 hours.

So, there is a lot of confusion in the whole country.

Answer 2

Answer:

The standard meridian of India is the 82.5º east longitude which passes through Allahabad. This is five and a half hours ahead of 0º meridian (Greenwich). The fun fact is, that the 82.5º east meridian wasn't chosen to be the Indian Standard Time till 1905 ,and came into force only in the year 1906.
