Answer:

India has a unique culture and is one of the oldest and greatest civilizations of the world. It stretches from the snow-capped Himalayas in the north to Sun drenched coastal villages of the south and the humid tropical forests on the south-west coast, from the fertile Brahmaputra valley in its east to the Thar Desert in the west.

India shares its border from Afghanistan and Pakistan to the north-west, China, Bhutan and Nepal to the north, Myanmar to the Far East and Bangladesh to the east. Sri Lanka is separated from India by a narrow channel of sea formed by the Palk Strait and the Gulf of Mannar. The country can be divided into six zones mainly North, South, East, West, and Central and Northeast zone. It has 29 states and seven union territories.

The Geological Structure of India is very diverse because an Indian rock belongs to different geologic periods, dating as far back as the Eoarchean Era. Its geographical land area can be classified into Archaean System; Dharwar System, Cuddapah System; Vindhyan System; Gondwana System, Deccan Trap; Tertiary System; Quarternary System.

India is located latitudinally in the Northern Hemisphere and longitudinally in the Eastern Hemisphere. It extends from 8°4′ north and 37°6′ North in length (latitudes). And between 68°7′ East and 97°25′ East in width (longitudes). Because of this great longitudinal extent, the difference in local time between eastern and western extremes of our country is about two hours.

The local time along 82° 30’ E longitudes is taken as standard time of India i.e. Indian Standard Time (IST). This meridian is known as the Standard Meridian of India. It has an area of 3.28 million square km. It is the seventh largest country in the world. It accounts for nearly 2% of the world’s total area. It is situated in the northern hemisphere.
