Gap between System Time and Python

Why is there a Gap of 2 Hours between the System Time and the Time returned by the time-Module in Python? With daylight saving Time it should be only one Hour. This is independently from the Device I use (Laptop, Raspberry, Smartphone). https://code.sololearn.com/cpk4SIB2fmIB/?ref=app

gmtime returns current time in UTC. Appears to work fine for me.

Your code shows the standard time in gst. Each area has a different time zone. Eg: India: gst+5:30 Nice work done!!!

Fixed wrong Output by using localtime() instead of gmtime(). Works fine in Pydroid. Here on SL I add two hours (7200 Seconds).
