the standard meridian is important for India bcoz there is two hours difference between the eastern most and western most part of India.so in order to maintain a common time through out India the central meridian 82.5 is selected as the standard meridian.the reason for the need of a common time n India is for the integrated running of railways,flights,many telecasts and for all these thing different places cant have different timings
