LADY CADETS IN NDA

I welcome the decision of Government to allow girls to join NDA. Being ex-NDA, I agree with experts who say that a lot of infrastructure will be needed before this can be implemented.

To start with there will be need of Lady Officers being posted as Divisional Officers, Squadron Commanders, Battalion Commanders, Deputy Commandant if not Commandant as well as for outdoor activities like PT, Drill, Sports, Riding, Weapon Training, Sailing, Gliding etc etc. Mindset of male cadets will need to be tuned to the idea of having girls as co-cadets.

Not only Lady Officers, there is a need for women ORs also under Lady Officers to assist them and for outdoor activities as mentioned above.

I at the age of 76 am willing to oversee implementation of this decision.

Take care
