India – Size and Location – 3_2

“Our country has cultural linkage with entire Asian countries through ages.” Explain the statement. What is the first statement of this video?

• The Indian landmass has a central location between East and West Asia.

• India is a southward extension of the Asian continent.

• The trans-Indian Ocean routes, which connect the countries of Europe in the West and the countries of East Asia, provide a strategic central location to India.

• Note that the Deccan Peninsula protrudes into the Indian Ocean, thus helping India to establish close contact with West Asia, Africa and Europe from the western coast and with Southeast and East Asia from the eastern coast.

• No other country has a long coastline on the Indian Ocean as India has and indeed, it is India’s eminent position in the Indian Ocean, which justifies the naming of an Ocean after it.

Why is the difference between the duration of day and night hardly felt at Kanyakumari but not so in Kashmir? What is the first sentence in this video?

• Tropic of Cancer passes through the center of the country.

• The southern part of India receives direct sunlight while the northern part receives slanting amount of sunlight.

• The southern part of India lies in the tropical zone while the northern part lies in the temperate zone. So instead of calling it completely temperate we also call it subtropics.

• So southern part of India lies in the tropical zone and the Nothern part lies in the subtropics

• Now, this amount of difference in the sunlight causes a difference between day and night in Kashmir and Kanyakumari.

Why is the difference between the duration of day and night hardly felt at Kanyakumari but not so in Kashmir? What is the second sentence in this video?

• The difference between the duration of day and night is hardly felt at Kanyakumari where the difference between day and night is almost equal.

• The southern part of India receives direct sunlight while the northern part receives slanting amount of sunlight.

• The southern part of India lies in the tropical zone while the northern part lies in the temperate zone. So instead of calling it completely temperate we also call it subtropics.

• So southern part of India lies in the tropical zone and the Nothern part lies in the subtropics

• Now, this amount of difference in the sunlight causes a difference between day and night in Kashmir and Kanyakumari.

Why is the difference between the duration of day and night hardly felt at Kanyakumari but not so in Kashmir? What is the third sentence in this video?

• The difference between the duration of day and night is hardly felt at Kanyakumari where the difference between day and night is almost equal.

• While as we are to be moving away from the equator towards Kashmir, which lies in the subtropical zone. So, Kashmir lies far away from the equator, and the amount of sundries is also indirect. Thus the difference between day and night it is felt that much meat.

• Points to Remember: The vast latitudinal extent of India is quite important.

• So southern part of India lies in the tropical zone and the Nothern part lies in the subtropics

• Now, this amount of difference in the sunlight causes a difference between day and night in Kashmir and Kanyakumari.

• Points to Remember: The vast latitudinal extent of India is quite important because it helps us to identify the difference between day and night. India has a vast latitudinal extent 8° 4'N” to 37°6′N.

• So southern part of India lies in the tropical zone and the Nothern part lies in the subtropics

• Now, this amount of difference in the sunlight causes a difference between day and night in Kashmir and Kanyakumari.
