प्रश्न
Give the importance of IST.
उत्तर
The longitudinal extent of India between the West and the East is about 30° from Gujarat to Arunachal Pradesh. This longitudinal difference makes a difference of nearly 2 hours in local time between Gujarat in the West and Arunachal Pradesh in the East. In order to avoid the time difference between the places, IST is calculated. The Indian Standard Time is calculated based on 82°30′ East longitude.
