Supreme Court has also slammed the Army for not allowing it to do so. On Army’s submission that it’s a policy decision, the Apex Court said that this decision is based on ‘Gender Discrimination’. A division bench comprising Justices Sanjay Kishan Kaul and Hrishikesh Roy passed the interim order in a writ petition filed by Kush Kalra seeking permission for women candidates to appear for the NDA exam. The matter will be heard again on September 8, 2021.
