All of China switched to UTC+8 in 1980. UTC+8 is the local mean time at 120 degrees east longitude. Unofficially, the two westernmost Chinese provinces, Tibet and Xinjiang, use UTC+6, which is the local mean time at 90 degrees east longitude.
The need for the Indian Standard Meridian was to establish a common reference point for time determination in India. By adopting the 82.5° E longitude as the standard meridian, it helped in organizing the country into a single time zone, simplifying time-keeping and communication processes across the nation.
The Pacific Standard Time Zone should be centered around 120° west longitude.
There is no standard meridian for Pakistan, if you are referring to the standard time zone it is 5+ or 6+ hours, depending on the time of year
The time meridian is each standard time zone roughly centered on a line of longitude exactly divisible by 15 degrees and the prime meridian is the starting point for the standard time zones an arbitrary longitude line.
The central meridian for Eastern Standard Time (EST) is 75 degrees west longitude. This meridian serves as the reference point for the time zone, which is 5 hours behind Coordinated Universal Time (UTC-5).
The standard meridian time for Europe is Greenwich Mean Time (GMT)
The significance of standard meridian of India is that Standard meridian is used as the standard time for whole country. If it isn't there chaos will be created in the country so standard time is very important.

The standard meridian of Malaysia is 105. Malaysia abides by the Malaysia Standard Time, which is developed in December 31, 1981 between WWI and WWII.

The meridian used for reckoning standard time; throughout most of the world the standard meridians are those whose longitudes are exactly divisible by 15°. In mapping, it is defined as a meridian of a map projection along which the scale is as stated.
it is necessary to adopt the local time of some central meridian because each degree of longitude differs by 4 minutes.so if we follow the time of each meridian it would be very difficult as the people in the same country will have different time and the people travelling around would have to change there time now and then.therefore a central meridian in the country is taken as the standard meridian and the whole country follows its time.
