Consider the following pairs of international boundary lines and their associated countries : I. Radcliffe Line – India and Pakistan II. McMahon Line – India and Nepal III. Durand Line – Pakistan and Afghanistan IV. 24th Parallel – India and Myanmar Which of the above pairs are correctly matched ?
I and III only
I is correct: the Radcliffe Line (1947) is the boundary between India and Pakistan (and India-Bangladesh).
II is wrong: the McMahon Line (1914 Simla Convention) separates India from China (Tibet), not Nepal.
III is correct: the Durand Line (1893) separates Pakistan and Afghanistan. IV is wrong: the 24th Parallel is the line Pakistan claims in the Rann of Kutch (India-Pakistan); it is not the India-Myanmar boundary.
So only pairs I and III are correctly matched.
Hence, I and III only.
