82 degree 30 minutes  is selected as standard meridian because it lies almost in center of the india. it has prevented alot of confusion from place to another and has brought harmony in timethroughout the country.the local time ateach longitutde is different so, in order to follow one timing we have accepted 82degree 30minutes as standard meridian.
