Sir Creek (/sər ˈkrik/ ^ⓘ sər KREEK), originally Ban Ganga,^[1] is a 96 km (60 mi) tidal estuary in the uninhabited marshlands of the Indus River Delta on the border between India and Pakistan. The creek flows into the Arabian Sea and separates Gujarat state in India from Sindh province in Pakistan.^[2] The long-standing India-Pakistan Sir Creek border dispute stems from the demarcation "from the mouth of Sir Creek to the top of Sir Creek, and from the top of Sir Creek eastward to a point on the line designated on the Western Terminus".^[2]^[3] From this point onward, the boundary is unambiguously fixed as defined by the Tribunal Award of 1968.^[4]
