In a landmark ruling, the Supreme Court on Wednesday allowed women to take the National Defence Academy (NDA) exam scheduled for September 5th this year.
While passing its order, the apex court said that admissions will be subject to the final orders of the court.
The Supreme Court also came down heavily on the Indian Army for not allowing women to take part in NDA exams.
On the Indian Army’s submission that it’s a policy decision, the top court says that this policy decision is based on “gender discrimination”.
