On Tuesday, the central government said in the Supreme Court that at the moment, male soldiers in the army have not been completely comfortable taking command from women officers.
Therefore, this is not the right time to deploy women officers to the commanding post in the army. Along with this, their big family responsibilities can not be ignored in the event of the captivity of women war.
The Center has given this argument in the Supreme Court on the plea for a permanent commission on the commanding posts of women in the army.
The Center said that most of the army personnel come from rural backgrounds. Due to the social structure of the place and the male-dominated way of working in the army so far, the young men have not been prepared mentally in taking orders from the female officers.
It has also been said in the Supreme Court that due to the difference in their physical levels between men and women soldiers, the same decision cannot be taken yet. There may also be problems in the deployment of women officers in combat situations.
After this, the Supreme Court indicated that women officers could not be agreed not to be posted at the command post. He told the army that appropriate arrangements can be made according to the organizational needs. Because women in the police force have done excellent work at the commanding post.
Therefore SC also said that in changing times, we also have to change the mindset. The court said that women should also be given opportunities where they can serve with their best abilities.
