Bhopal: The Supreme Court has given another reason for the women to make the country proud by allowing them to take the examination for admission to National Defence Academy (NDA). In a major step towards gender equality, said the girls after the apex court passed an interim order allowing women to take the NDA exams on September 5. The bench even said why it was still required to have judicial orders for a thing as simple as allowing women to take an exam of their choice. Free Press talked to girls to understand how they faced the discrimination and how they now welcome the decision. Excerpts:
