There are three major implications of latitudinal extent-

  • Tropic of cancer (231/2 .) – It divides India into 2 parts.
  • The places above Tropic of Cancer are Northern India and below Tropic of Cancer is Southern India.
  • Well connected to east/west of the world the total area of India is 3.8 million sq km of total land.
  • As we move from Kanniyakumari to Jammu/Kashmir duration of day and night decreases by more than 4V2 hours.
  • This is because of unequal duration of latitude by Circle of Illumination.
