Before partition Durand line was the border between India and Afghanistan. But after that the boundary divided Pakistan and Afghanistan. So presently it is the boundary between Pakistan and Afghanistan.

The Durand Line is a frontier boundary between Afghanistan and Pakistan. It was established after an 1893 memorandum of understanding (MoU) between Mortimer Durand of British India and Afghan Amir Abdur Rahman Khan.

The Durand Line is the 2,430-kilometre international border between Pakistan and Afghanistan.
