Question

why do we need a standard meridian in India
please answer fast ..... in short ..... Thanks :)

Answer 1

Answer:

India has a vast longitudinal extent. Since many meridians pass through it, it is important to adopt the local time of one central meridian of a country as the standard time for the country. Thus, we need a standard meridian for the country. In India 82 ½ °E longitude determines the standard time.
