Question

explain 820 30, E odd value as been chosen as the standard meridian of india​

Answer 1

Explanation:

1. In India there is a time lag of 2hrs seen in states like Gujarat and Arunachal Pradesh

2. So because of these time differences, it becomes difficult to make the railway timetables and airport schedules.

3. So the longitudnal extent, 82°30'E, passing through Mirzapur is considered Standard Meridian of India as it is also divisible by 7•5°.

Hope this helps.
