Women In Territorial Army Along LOC

Territorial Army women officers will now be posted along LOC. The Ministry of Defence, Department of Military Affairs has made a significant development by approving an amendment to the existing cadre management provisions for Women Officers in the Territorial Army (TA). Since 2019, the Territorial Army has been commissioning Women Officers who have been serving in Ecological Task Force Units, TA Oil sector units, and TA Railway Engineer Regiment. With the experience gained during this period, a proposal was prepared to expand the employment scope for women officers in TA, which was approved by the Hon’ble Raksha Mantri in April this year.
