Which fact related to India's size can be indirectly linked with the national transport system?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: पूर्व-पश्चिम देशांतरीय विस्तार के कारण समय एकरूपता की जरूरत (Need for time uniformity due to east-west longitudinal extent)

The governing concept is the practical effect of longitudinal extent on local time. Earth rotates 15 degrees in about one hour, so places at different longitudes experience different local times. India has a considerable east-west span, creating a noticeable difference in local time between its eastern and western regions. A single standard time, based on the Standard Meridian, simplifies railway timetables, road and air schedules, communication and administration. Thus option A is correct: transport requires time uniformity as a practical response to longitudinal extent. The other options do not establish a valid relationship between India’s size and transport operations.
