Let's examine each year provided in the options:
- 1947: India and Pakistan were involved in a war immediately after the partition in 1947. This conflict, known as the First Kashmir War, lasted until 1948. So, a war did occur in 1947.
- 1965: A major conflict, the Indo-Pakistani War of 1965, took place in this year. This was a significant military confrontation between the two countries. So, a war did occur in 1965.
