Line of Control

The Line of Control (LOC) is a line which demarcates the boundary between the territories controlled by two militaries or political entities, e.g. the ones in Western Kashmir and the Aksai Chin — where it is known as the "Line of Actual Control" (LAC).

Originally known as the "Ceasefire Line", it was redesignated the "Line of Control" after the Simla Agreement.
