Question

find out the names of all the places which lies in 82 degrees 30' E

Answer 1

Answer:

The standard meridian is the longitude or meridian used for reckoning standard time of a country. It is generally a multiple of 7.5 degrees longitude.

In this way India has chosen 82.5 degree east as its standard meridian. This gives Indian Standard Time (IST) to be 5 hours 30 minutes ahead of Greenwich Meridian Time (GMT).

The standard meridian of India passes through Allahabad and roughly bisects the country in terms of longitude.

As you can see from this image, the vertical line - the Standard Meridian passes through 5 states :
