Step-by-step explanation:
The 82.30' Eastern Longitude will be taken as the standard time for the entire country. It has served to avoid confusion that would have arisen by following separate local times or in lack of a uniform time. 82degree 30 minutes is chosen as standard Meridian mainly because it lies almost in the middle of India.
