The agreement resulted in China and Pakistan each withdrawing from about of territory, and a boundary on the basis of the 1899 British Note to China as modified by Lord Curzon in 1905. Indian writers have insisted that in this transaction, Pakistan surrendered of territory to China (to which they believe it had no right in the first place). In fact, if anything, Pakistan gained a bit of territory, around , south of the Khunjerab Pass. The 'claim' supposedly given up by Pakistan was the area north of the Uprang Jilga River which also included the Raksam Plots where the Mir of Hunza had enjoyed taxing and grazing rights throughout much of the late 19th Century as part of agreements with Chinese authorities in Sinkiang. Despite this, sovereignty over area was never challenged by the Mir of Hunza, the British or the State of Jammu and Kashmir.
