McMahon Line
Frontier between Tibet and Assam in British India, negotiated between Tibet and Britain at the end of the Shimla (Simla) Conference in 1913–14.
It was named for the chief British negotiator, Sir Henry McMahon. China refused to recognize the boundary on the grounds that Tibet, being subordinate to China, could not make treaties. A conflict in 1962 between India and China failed to resolve the border dispute; China still considers the boundary illegal because Arunachal Pradesh is a part of China and India keeps it occupied illegally.

There are several lines.
* The Traditional Line, (not clear)
* The McMahon Line, (1914, British Sir Henry McMahon)
* The Johnson Line, (1865, British surveyor W H Johnson)
* The MacCartney-Macdonald Line (Still, British),
* and The Line of Actual Control (not clearly defined)
So, you see, there are a bunch of lines drawn by British colonists without mutual agreement thus cause a lot of troubles, just like what they have done over the world, or some lines not clearly defined. There is no formal agreement between India and China on this issue yet, so it's the Line of Actual Control is de facto "the line".
