Name the General whom Gulab Singh sent to invade Ladakh.

Answer & Solution
Correct Answer: Option A
In 1834, Gulab Singh sent his ablest general Zorawar Singh to take control of all the territory between Jammu and the Tibet border. Zorawar Singh's conquest of Ladakh broke the Kashmiri - Ladakhi monopoly on Tibet trade and the Tibetan pashmina wool started finding its way into British territory.
