What to Focus On

  • Land neighbours share borders with India.
  • Maritime neighbours are connected by a shared sea or ocean.
  • India has a long land boundary and an even more strategically important coastline.
  • China is India’s largest neighbour by area.
  • The border passes through five Indian regions: Arunachal Pradesh, Sikkim, Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, and Ladakh.
  • Buddhism reached China around the 1st century CE.
  • Pakistan came into existence in 1947.
  • It was founded on a religious basis, unlike India.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

A neighbour must always share a land border.

India’s coastline and land boundary are the same length.

China is not India’s land neighbour because only Tibet is near India.
