Explanation:
India is one of the ancient civilisations in the world. It has achieved multi-faceted socio-
economic progress during the last five decades. It has moved forward displaying remarkable
progress in the field of agriculture, industry, technology and overall economic development.
India has also contributed significantly to the making of world history.
India is a vast country. Lying entirely in the Northern hemisphere the main land extends
between latitudes 80 4’N and 370 6’N and longitudes 680 7’E and 970 25’E. The Tropic of
Cancer (230 30’N) divides the country into almost two equal parts. To the southeast and
southwest of the mainland, lie the Andaman and Nicobar Islands and the Lakshadweep islands
in Bay of Bengal and Arabian Sea respectively.
The landmass of India has an area of 3.28 million square km. India’s total area accounts for
about 2.4 percent of the total geographical area of the world. India is the seventh largest
country of the world. India has a land boundary of about 15,200 km and the total length of the
coast line of the mainland including Andaman and Nicobar and Lakshadweep is 7,516.6 km.
The Indian landmass has a central location between the East and the West Asia. India is a
southward extension of the Asian Continent. The Trans Indian Ocean routes which connect
the countries of Europe in the West and the countries of East Asia provide a strategic central
location to India. No other country has a long coastline on the Indian Ocean as India has and
indeed, it is India’s eminent position in the Indian Ocean which justifies the naming of an
Ocean after it.
