During the India Pakistan War of 1947, Zoji La was seized by Pakistani raiders in their campaign to capture Ladakh. However, the pass was later captured by the Indian forces in a daring assault code-named Operation Bison. The operation achieved success due to the unexpected use of tanks, which was then the highest altitude at which tanks had operated during a war.
