  1. The local time of places which lie on different meridians is bound to differ.
  2. The sun rises two hours earlier in Arunachal Pradesh as compared to Gujarat in the West due to longitudinal difference of 30.
  3. This causes a time loss of two hours from Gujarat to Arunachal Pradesh.
  4. To avoid confusion due to time differences and to have a standard time for our entire country we have adopted the standard time (IST)
  5. Time at 82 1/2 °E is our IST
  6. This is why the clocks show the same time.

The longitudinal gap between Arunachal Pradesh and Gujarat is about 30°. Due to this, there is time lag of about two hours between these states. Since Arunachal Pradesh is in the east hence the sun rises earlier here compared to in Gujarat. The Indian Standard Time is taken from the time of Standard Meridian of India and hence, the watches show the same time in both the states.
