Detailed Solution

68°7'E is the westernmost longitude of India. India's easternmost longitude is 97° 25' E. It is situated in the Arunachal Pradesh state. There may be significant discrepancies in local time between locations at two extreme points of India due to the large longitudinal extent of east-west endpoints at roughly 29°. As a result, there would be a two-hour delay between these two points. Gujarat is home to India's westernmost longitude ( Kutch area). It is located at 68 degrees, 34 minutes west, not far from Ghuar Mota in Gujarat.
