Answer:
The longitude gap between Arunachal Pradesh and Gujarat is about 30°. Due to this there is a time lag of about two hours between these two states. Since Arunachal Pradesh is in the east, the sun rises here early compared to Gujarat. The Indian standard time is taken from the standard meridian of India and hence, the watches show the same time in both states.

Answer:
From Gujarat to Arunachal Pradesh there is a time lag of two hours, but the watches show the same time because the time along the Standard Meridian of India (82° 30' E) passing through Mirzapur in Uttar Pradesh is taken as the standard time for the whole country.
