Question

Mention the number of time zones of Russia, Canada, USA, India and Nepal.

Answer 1

Russia spans 11 time zones due to its vast east-west extent. Both the USA and Canada each have 5 time zones. India, despite spanning over 30 degrees of longitude and thus lying in two time zones, officially follows a single time zone known as Indian Standard Time (IST). Nepal uses a unique 30-minute offset time zone from UTC, similar to India.
