"blue line" in the north. That line was, and still is,
quite favourable to us as far as Kacha Kuh, but the
straight line which had been drawn from that point to
Koh-i-Malik Siah was clearly recognised to be most
inconvenient from the strategic point of view. In
1912 the Government of India "interpreted the fiiatUfi
as meaning the then existing conditions of occupation
by other side and considered Col.McMahon * s red line
as roughly representing the limits of British
occupation". At that time, the Chagai authorities had

orders not to permit any trespass between the-w*4~
and blue lines. The Persians were then claiming Kacha
and Piran, but it was considered that a delimitation
of the whole frontier would be "most inopportune" as
the Government of India believed that they could deal
with the matter locally.
4. The next time this section of the frontier came
into the news was in 1931 when, owing probably to their
annoyance at our withdrawal of the railway service, the
Persians again began trespassing in the direction of
Juzzak and also of Kacha and Piran in the northern
section. The Agent to the Governor General in
Baluchistan and H.M's Consul in Sistan (Col.Daly) at
first pressed for demarcation, but afterwards thought
better of it, and by November of that year all concerned
were agreed that it was advisable to avoid raising the
frontier question until a formal application for the
appointment of a boundary commission was made by the
Persian Government. Kven if there nx were further
incursions into the disputed territory on the part of
the local Persians officials, these were to be dealt
with on the spot and if possible officially ignored.
