How much part of Siachin glacier is under the control of Pakistan?

A. 33%
B. 44%
C. 47%
D. 55%
Correct Answer: A. 33%

The Siachen Glacier is a highly contested territory between India and Pakistan. Pakistan controls approximately 33% of the glacier, primarily the western slopes and lower reaches. India controls the remaining two-thirds, including the strategically important Siachen Glacier itself and its major passes. This division is a result of the Line of Control (LoC) not being clearly demarcated in this extreme northern region, leading to military confrontations. The other options, 44%, 47%, and 55%, are incorrect figures for the portion of the glacier under Pakistani control, as the established understanding points to a smaller share for Pakistan compared to India.
