to stay Modes of Travel Travel Agents Profile India is one of the oldest |
civilizations in the world with a kaleidoscopic variety and rich cultural |
heritage. It has achieved all-round socio-economic progress since its |
Independence. India has become self-sufficient in agricultural production and |
is now one of the top industrialised countries in the world and one of the few |
nations to have gone into outer space to conquer nature for the benefit of the |
people. It covers an area of 32,87,263 sq. km (1,269,346 sq mi), extending |
from the snow-covered Himalayan heights to the tropical rain forests of the |
south. As the 7th largest country in the world, India stands apart from the |
rest of Asia, marked off as it is by mountains and the sea, which give the |
country a distinct geographical entity. Bounded by the Great Himalayas in the |
north, it stretches southwards and at the Tropic of Cancer, tapers off into |
the Indian Ocean between the Bay of Bengal on the east and the Arabian Sea on |
the west. Lying entirely in the northern hemisphere, the mainland extends |
between latitudes 8° 4' and 37° 6' north, longitudes 68° 7' and 97° 25' east |
and measures about 3,214 km from north to south between the extreme latitudes |
and about 2,933 km from east to west between the extreme longitudes. It has a |
land frontier of about 15,200 km. The total length of the coastline of the |
mainland, Lakshadweep Islands and Andaman & Nicobar Islands is 7,516.6 km. |
GEOGRAPHY Particulars Description Location The Indian peninsula is separated |
from mainland Asia by the Himalayas. The Country is surrounded by the Bay of |
Bengal in the east, the Arabian Sea in the west, and the Indian Ocean to the |
south. Geographic Coordinates Lying entirely in the Northern Hemisphere, the |
Country extends between 8° 4' and 37° 6' latitudes north of the Equator, and |
68° 7' and 97° 25' longitudes east of it. Indian Standard Time GMT \+ 05:30 |
Area 3.3 Million sq. km Telephone Country Code +91 Border Countries |
Afghanistan and Pakistan to the north-west; China, Bhutan and Nepal to the |
north; Myanmar to the east; and Bangladesh to the east of West Bengal. Sri |
Lanka is separated from India by a narrow channel of sea, formed by Palk |
Strait and the Gulf of Mannar. Coastline 7,517 km encompassing the mainland, |
Lakshadweep Islands, and the Andaman & Nicobar Islands. Climate The climate of |
India can broadly be classified as a tropical monsoon one. But, in spite of |
much of the northern part of India lying beyond the tropical zone, the entire |
