Fewer women joining Indian Army say officials

Not many women seem interested in joining the Indian Army. Only half the number of women candidates who qualified in the entrance exam and interview, turned up for the Officers Training Academy (OTA) course in Tamil Nadu this year.
The course has 80 seats but only around 40 women candidates came as the course began in April. This comes even as the top army brass agreed to give permanent commission to women officers in more branches.
