The equator crosses 3 countries in South America, 6 countries in Africa, a country
in Asia, and the territorial waters of 3 or 4 Pacific island countries.
Each of these has part of it on one side of the equator, another part of it on the
other side of the equator, and territory that's right exactly on the equator. So
you'd have to say that all 13 or 14 of them are tied for "nearest".

All of India is distinctly north of the equator.

The southernmost point on land, south of Nagercoil where Highway-47 approaches the seacoast and then abruptly turns north, is still about 560 miles north of the equator.
The Equator is equidistant from both poles.
