What could be more thrilling than flying in a fighter jet while protecting the skies of the motherland?
Well, this Women’s Day, we bring you the stories and valor of some of the bravest women in the modern era who never settled for anything less than free skies.
India was one of the earliest countries in the world to induct women into the Air Force.
While women in several other countries were fighting for equal voting rights, women in India were training shoulder to shoulder with men in the Indian Armed forces.
You must have heard about Gunjan Saxena and Sreevidya Rajan who proved their mettle on the battlefield in the Kargil war of 1999.

Starting next year, the self-declared Nagorno-Karabakh Republic will no longer exist, as its president has issued a decree to dissolve all state institutions in the aftermath of its defeat by Azerbaijan. The Azerbaijani victory led to a mass exodus of ethnic Armenians residing in Nagorno-Karabakh and marked the conclusion of long-standing conflicts. President Samvel Shahramanyan's decree mandates the dissolution of all institutions and organizations of the Republic of Artsakh, an entity not internationally recognized, by the beginning of the upcoming year.
