●Ans- The local times of places which lie on different meridians are bound to differ. The sun rises two hours earlier in Arunachal Pradesh as compared to Gujarat in the west. This causes a time lag of two hours from Gujarat to Arunachal Pradesh. To avoid confusion due to time differences and to have a standard time for reference, the time along the meridian (82° 30' E) passing through Mirzapur (Uttar Pradesh) has been taken as the standard time for the entire country. This is why the watches show the same time.

This is because -
1- The prime meridian of India is 82°5 E which is passes through Mirzapur (Utter Pradesh).
2- So the local time of that longitude is taken as the time for whole country. Therefore all the watches are set according to it and shows same time.
Hope it helps.
