None of the given options accurately describe the Line of Control in Kashmir. The Line of Control is a highly militarized de facto border between the Indian-administered and Pakistan-administered parts of Kashmir. It is marked by a barbed-wire fence and is heavily guarded by troops from both sides. It has not brought an end to the fighting in Kashmir, as there have been numerous instances of border skirmishes and cross-border attacks. Additionally, the location of the Line of Control does not provide India with access to oil deposits in Kashmir.
