How Many Girls Applied For NDA 2 2021: Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) is going to conduct the NDA 2 2021 written exam across the various exam centres in India. The most important and rather historical thing related to this year’s NDA written exam is that Girls can now give NDA 2 2021. Thanks to the historical verdict by the honourable Supreme Court on  August 18, the pathway for girl candidates is now open to the most premier institution of defence training in India- NDA (National Defence Academy) which is situated in Khadaksawala, Pune.

Now after the application process was closed for NDA 2 2021, the major question is how many candidates applied for NDA 2 2021 and above the question is How Many Girls Applied For NDA 2 2021 ?

This year total 5.70 lakh candidates applied for NDA 2 2021 and out this 1.78 lakh Girls applied for NDA 2 2021 written exam.

As per the UPSC officials, “Nearly 570,000 applications have been received and of these 178,000 are women,”

The apex court’s order making women eligible to join NDA, which was formally inaugurated 66 years ago and was thus far a male preserve, came almost three decades after they were allowed to serve in select branches of the army, air force and navy as short-service commission (SSC) officers.

Army Chief General MM Naravane Message For NDA Girl Candidates

How Many Girls Applied For NDA 2 2021 ? A fortnight ahead of the exam, army chief General Manoj Mukund Naravane on Friday set the tone for welcoming female cadets into the Khadakwasla-based academy, which currently has a maximum training capacity of around 2,000 cadets every year.

“As we open the portals of NDA to women cadets, I expect you all to welcome them with the same sense of fair play and professionalism that the Indian armed forces are known for the world over,” Naravane said, while addressing cadets during a passing out parade at the academy.

Naravane said the induction of women will be the “first step towards gender equality” in the armed forces, and added that women officers will be in the same position 40 years later that he is in now.

The army chief said he is confident that women cadets will perform better than their male counterparts. “Over the years, as we have grown and matured; as the curriculum has changed, training methodology has changed, the course content has improved. We have become more well-trained and better-equipped to meet whatever challenges that emerge. As we go ahead, we shall be inducting women cadets into the academy,” he said.

The aspects that NDA will now have to quickly work on include medical standards for women, accommodation, training capacity, security and privacy arrangements, physical segregation of living quarters, associated physical and electronic surveillance measures, and additional gender-specific requirements.

Road Ahead For Girl Candidates From NDA

The physical and medical standards for men for entry to NDA are extremely stringent . Equivalent standards for women in the NDA entry age group (16.5 to 19 years) are being formulated, said another official.

Students become eligible to take the NDA and Naval Academy Examination, while they are in Class 12.

After training at NDA for three years, split into six terms, cadets head for further training at different academies depending on their choice of service before being commissioned as officers.

The headcount of women in the military has increased almost three-fold over the last six years, with more avenues being opened to them at a steady pace. As of February 2021, 9,118 women were serving in the army, navy and air force.

Permanent Commission Granted To Women Officers 

The Supreme Court on February 17, 2020, ruled that SSC women officers in the army are entitled to permanent commission (PC) and they have to be considered irrespective of their service length.

Five months later, the defence ministry issued a formal sanction letter for granting PC to them. The order specified grant of PC to SSC women officers in 10 streams.

Women in Indian Armed Forces (Role Wise)

One of the turning points for women in the military came in 2015 when the Indian Air Force decided to induct them into the fighter stream. Earlier this year, the Indian Navy deployed four women officers on warships after a hiatus of almost 25 years.

But tanks and combat positions in infantry are still no-go zones for women.
