• C. 26th Parallel
• D. 18th Parallel

Hint:

In the context of Indian-Pakistani relations, the 24\textsuperscript{th} Parallel is significant due to Pakistan's claims over the Kashmir region.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

The 24th Parallel is the line that Pakistan claims as the boundary demarcation between India and Pakistan, although the actual line of control is different.

Answer 2

The 24th Parallel as Claimed Demarcation Line:
The line that Pakistan claims should be the actual demarcation between India and Pakistan is referred to as the 24th Parallel.

Historically, this claim has been part of territorial disputes between the two countries, especially concerning the region of Jammu and Kashmir. The 24th Parallel lies to the south of the current Line of Control (LoC) and represents an alternative boundary claimed by Pakistan.

However, the internationally recognized boundary and the actual military control line between India and Pakistan in this region remains the Line of Control, established after the ceasefire in 1949 and reaffirmed after subsequent agreements.

Conclusion:
Thus, the 24th Parallel is the line that Pakistan asserts as the true border between the two countries, although this claim is disputed by India.
