Answer:
Explanation:
In India, 82° 30' E is demeaned as a standard meridian because for every 1° longitude time variation is 4 minutes.
India’s total longitudinal space is 30° (97°E-67°E=30°E). So,
the entire time difference is 30×4=120 minutes or 2 hours,
that determines the time difference between Gujarat and
Arunachal Pradesh would be 2 hrs. To bypass such confusion
and to have the same time all over the country, we have taken
a standard meridian.
