______ longitude passes almost from the middle of the country. It is known as Standard Meridian of India.

  • A.82°30' South
  • B.82°30' West
  • C.82°30' East
  • D.82°30' North

Answer: C

82°30' East longitude is the Standard Meridian of India. It passes through Mirzapur in Uttar Pradesh, and Indian Standard Time is calculated on its basis. A longitude is east or west of Greenwich, never north or south, so 82°30' North and South are wrong, and India lies in the eastern hemisphere, so West is also wrong.
