Sir Henry McMahon a British colonial administrator drew a line along the Himalayas at the Simla Convention of 1913-14 demarcating what would in later years become the effective boundary between China and India. The boundary disputed by India's northern neighbour has had a profound effect on the relations between the two Asian giants resulting most prominently in the war of 1962 but also in several skirPaper Backhes and stand-offs both before and after that. It continues to be a thorn in the side - reaching a flashpoint at the tri-junction between Tibet Sikkim and Bhutan in Doklam in 2017 - and may derail all the progress in bilateral ties if left unattended.
