Standard Meridian of India and time zones

This Class 11 Geography topic from the chapter “India – Location” explains how India determines its standard time from the 82°30′E Standard Meridian, which passes near Mirzapur in Uttar Pradesh. Students learn the relationship between longitude and local time, why India follows Indian Standard Time (IST), and how the country’s wide east–west extent creates differences in sunrise and local time. The topic also introduces time zones and the practical need for a single national time system.
