Answer:

The sun rises two hours earlier in Arunachal Pradesh as compared to Gujarat. This causes a time lag of 2 hrs from Gujarat to Arunachal Pradesh to avoid confusion and to have a standard time for reference, The 82.30'Eastern Longitude has been taken as the standard time for the whole country

hope this helps
