Major-General Kanwar Zorawar Singh MC (14 February 1920 – 24 December 1994) was a senior cavalry officer in the Indian Army.

On 3 August 1944 Singh led a reconnaissance patrol consisting of his squadron and another towards Casale Vecchia, which is north-west of Arezzo.

The 28-mile road from Naushera to Rajauri was heavily damaged with felled trees and boulders acting as roadblocks.

An assessment of the operation deemed it to be both time and labour-intensive to enable the road to be usable for an advance to Rajauri.

The arrival of Indian tanks in Rajauri had surprised the Pakistani Army and without equivalent firepower, they were forced to withdraw.

His successful leadership of the operation earned him the status of being one of independent India's first great tank commanders.
