Many women in uniform are hoping that the country&rsquo;s first full-time woman Defence Minister will take bold decisions against what they allege are systemic discrimination against women.<br /> <br /> Though Indian military has only a minuscule number of women in service, a noticeably large number of them are fighting court cases or complaints against discrimination in various forums.<br /> <br /> By information given in Parliament as on early 2017, there are 3,578 women officers in the three services. This broadly represents about 3.64% in the Army, 4.49% in the Navy and 13% in the IAF.<br /> <br /> Besides, about 5,000 Military Nursing Service members are also in uniform.<br /> <br /> Over the past three years, with the government&rsquo;s focus on women&rsquo;s empowerment, the three services have taken some steps for expanding the avenues for women, but several issues still remain. However, recruitment numbers of the past few years are almost at the same level with a decline in women joining the Army.<br /> <br /> While the issue of women in combat roles gets traction often, another aspect mostly neglected is the issue of permanent commission.<br /> <br /> <em>Permanent commission<br /> </em><br /> &ldquo;With the new Defence Minister being a woman, I hope something beneficial for the women fraternity will come.

Will Nirmala break glass ceiling in military? -Dinakar Peri |
-The Hindu
Facts show that the Services are the last bastion of male dominance, with women even denied a permanent commission Despite the latest move by the Army to induct 800 women into its ranks, cold facts show that the Indian military is the last bastion of male dominance in the government. Many women in uniform are hoping that the country’s first full-time woman Defence Minister will take bold decisions against what they allege are systemic discrimination against women. Though Indian military has only a minuscule number of women in service, a noticeably large number of them are fighting court cases or complaints against discrimination in various forums. By information given in Parliament as on early 2017, there are 3,578 women officers in the three services. This broadly represents about 3.64% in the Army, 4.49% in the Navy and 13% in the IAF. Besides, about 5,000 Military Nursing Service members are also in uniform. Over the past three years, with the government’s focus on women’s empowerment, the three services have taken some steps for expanding the avenues for women, but several issues still remain. However, recruitment numbers of the past few years are almost at the same level with a decline in women joining the Army. While the issue of women in combat roles gets traction often, another aspect mostly neglected is the issue of permanent commission. Permanent commission “With the new Defence Minister being a woman, I hope something beneficial for the women fraternity will come. We will request time from her once she takes charge,” said Commander Prasannaa Edayilliam, an Air Traffic Control officer who retired from service in 2008 and since 2010 has been fighting a legal battle for permanent commission.
