The Zojila Pass lies between:
- AKashmir Valley and Ladakh
- BKashmir and Pakistan
- CKashmir and Tibet
- DKashmir and Himachal
Show answer and explanation
Correct answer: (a) Kashmir Valley and Ladakh
Explanation
The Zojila Pass (about 3,500 m), in the Zaskar range, links the Kashmir valley (Srinagar side) with Ladakh (Kargil and Leh) on the Srinagar–Leh highway. Heavy snow closes it in winter, so the Zojila tunnel is being built for all-weather travel. It was strategically important in the wars of 1948 and 1999 (Kargil).
