Women candidates ought to be permitted to take the National Defense Academy (NDA) exams this year, the Supreme Court said today, dismissing the central government’s solicitation to concede the move until the following year to set up another framework. “We offered desire to the young ladies. We can’t deny them that trust presently,” said the judges.
The “no test today, test tomorrow” approach would conflict with the goals of girls, the court said, coordinating a warning for tests on November 14.
The SC Judges had proposed that the very first women batch possibility for NDA take the exams in May one year from now. There was too brief period to allow women to take the exams this year, the Judges had told the court.
“The military have managed truly challenging circumstances and crisis. They are prepared in managing crises. Furthermore, they will actually want to manage this,” the Supreme Court reacted.

“Assuming they show up in exams in May 2022, the admission will occur in January 2023. We can’t defer things by a year,” said Justices SK Kaul and BR Gavai.
The court had before called the NDA recruitment policy ‘unfair’ to women.
The government had said it is in the process of establishing “appropriate” medical and physical fitness standards, and building “required infrastructure”, which includes “robust physical separation between male and female residential areas”.
The government had also said there were “no parallel (physical) standards for women candidates”, so these were being formulated; “… the issue needs detailed analysis, including expert inputs to maintain operational readiness.” Gynaecologists, sports medicine experts and counsellors, nursing staff and female attendants would also need to be in place for women cadets, it had said.
Trishul Defence Academy strongly advises the female NDA aspirants to have patience and wait for the final judgement to come as this case proceedings is still going on in the Honorable Supreme Court. TDA will continously provide every update, detail along with full analysis. Kindly stay connected !
