Detailed Solution

In Gujarat state the sun rises earlier through the west.
The sunrise is from Gujarat in the west to Arunachal Pradesh in the east. There is a delay of two hours for the sun to rise as Gujarat will see the same time at 6 am, but the sun's rays will reach late at 7.44 am. Gujarat's western longitude is 68° 7' E, so the difference between the two longitudes is 4 minutes, making a total of 30 longitudes times 4 minutes equal 120 minutes or 2 hours. At 97°25', Arunachal Pradesh sees the sun 4 hours and 20 minutes before anywhere else. However, India is in the same time zone, Indian Standard Time.
