Answer 2

Answer:

The line that passes through the 'middle' of India dividing it into two equal parts is 82° 30'east.

Explanation:

The latitude which 'divides' India into two equal halves - 'Tropic of Cancer'

It is also known as the 'Northern Tropic'. It is an imaginary line at '23.50 degree' north of the 'Equator'.

India lies between 68° E to 97°E and this longitude 82° 30'E passes through the center of India near Mirzapur (UP), which is 5 and ½ hours ahead of GMT(Greenwich meantime).
