Arey, suno bhaiya. Pehle toh har shahar apna alag time use karta tha - Calcutta time, Bombay time. Train ka schedule khichadi ban jata tha! Isi wajah se 1905 mein British ne ek single line chuna - 82°30' East, jo shayad Allahabad ke paas se guzarti hai. Isi line par puri India ka samaj, IST, set hai.
Ab "IST plus five thirty" matlab yeh hai ki hum London se saat ghante aur minute aage hain. Haan, maine khud dekha hai jab station par log apni ghari adjust karte the, aur ek saheeb ne bola tha, "Ab sab isi Allahabad wali line se chalega." Mera tau bhi kaha karte the, "Chahe kaun sa time ho, bijli theek karna mera kaam hai.
