The Sir Creek Dispute Between India and Pakistan

 

Sir Creek Dispute

Historical Background

The Sir Creek dispute dates back to the colonial era and stems from ambiguous boundary agreements made under British rule. In 1908, the princely state of Kutch (in present-day India) and the Sindh province (in present-day Pakistan) quarreled over rights in the Sir Creek area. The British administration attempted to settle this with a 1914 resolution by the Government of Bombay but this document was internally contradictory. The map attached to the 1914 resolution placed the boundary along the eastern bank of Sir Creek (implying the entire creek fell in Sindh, now Pakistan), whereas the textual description stated that the border ran mid-channel according to the thalweg principle, the idea that a navigable river’s boundary follows its deepest channel. This unresolved ambiguity laid the groundwork for future disputes.

Upon Partition in 1947, Sindh became part of Pakistan and Kutch (later part of Gujarat) remained in India, but no clear demarcation of Sir Creek was achieved. Tensions over the marshy Rann of Kutch region (adjacent to Sir Creek) led to a brief armed clash in 1965. A UN-sponsored tribunal in 1968 adjudicated the Rann of Kutch boundary, awarding about 90% of the disputed territory to India. Crucially, however, that 1968 award explicitly excluded Sir Creek from its scope, leaving the creek’s boundary unresolved. From the mouth of Sir Creek to the top of Sir Creek, the border remains undefined. What seemed a minor leftover dispute at the time would later gain outsized importance with the advent of modern maritime rights.

Travel Therapy: Can a Change of Scenery Heal a Fixated Mind


When most people hear the word travel, they imagine boarding a plane, unfolding a map, or stepping into an unfamiliar city. For those of us who have lived through the storm of limerence that state of obsessive infatuation where every thought circles back to one person travel can take on another meaning. It becomes both a metaphor and a practice for navigating the landscapes of our hearts.

In this book, The Grip of Limerence: Living with Obsessive Love and Finding Freedom, Kiran James describes how limerence can feel like being trapped in a single destination, unable to move forward or turn back. Yet just as travel broadens horizons, breaking free from limerence requires courage, exploration, and the willingness to step into unfamiliar territory.

The familiar trap: staying in one place

When limerence takes hold, it’s as though you’re stuck in a single town where every street leads to the same central square your limerent object (LO). No matter how many times you try to explore, you always end up circling back, replaying conversations, re-reading messages, or checking for online updates.

It feels safe in its predictability. But just as staying in one place for too long can make even the most beautiful city feel suffocating, limerence drains joy from life. The comfort of routine becomes a cage, and your inner compass points only toward one person.

Coolcations: Holidays in Cooler Places


When most people think of holidays they imagine beaches, palm trees, and hot sunshine. Yet many travellers today are looking for something different. They want to escape the heat rather than chase it. This new trend is called coolcation.

A coolcation means choosing a destination with pleasant or cold weather instead of hot and humid conditions. It could be a hill station, a mountain village, or even a northern country where summer feels like spring. The idea is simple. Instead of sweating through your holiday you enjoy fresh air and comfortable temperatures.
