History The famous Pashmina was extracted
from the eastern Ladakh, where it was transformed into shawls .
It attracted the attention of Gulab Singh, the ruler of Jammu, who sent his general Zorawar Singh to invade Ladakh in 1834 AD.
There followed a decade of war which ended with the emergence of the British power in north India. So, Ladakh was incorporated into the newly created state of Jammu & Kashmir.
