Q1. The Prime Meridian of India does not pass through which of the following states?
A Uttar Pradesh
B Madhya Pradesh
C Chhattisgarh
D Tamil Nadu Correct
Explanation
The question refers to India’s Standard Meridian, 82°30' E, often loosely called the prime meridian of India in exam material. It passes through Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh, so those states cannot be the answer to a negative question. The same meridian continues through Odisha and Andhra Pradesh, but it does not pass through Tamil Nadu. Therefore Tamil Nadu is the state excluded from the route of India’s Standard Meridian.
