Had the topic been changed to "Are women needed for defence forces?" it would be much better. I totally agree that women are fit for defence forces. Though the proportion may vary when compared to men. If in men 6 out of 10 qualifies, in women it may be 2 or 3 out of 10. But my question is that 'Are they really needed?'.
What if she is required to leave her home/family for 5 or 10 years to perform her duty? Think of the plight her family members faces. What if she is a mother of two kids? There is no substitute for mothers love/care. The best way for a woman to serve a nation would be by raising her children with moral standards. One step further she can motivate her son to join the defence force.

Good evening gentlemen.
I am not agree with the concept that women are not fit for defense. Women are giving a very good result in defense forces. They are really capable to do everything in every walk of life.
If we really want to empower the women then we should forget this type of negativity.

In my opinion.
Girls can join defence forces but not to fight on borders. As I think the way a male soldier can fight girls can't and if girls manage to do that also then we have to think about the consequences of becoming prisoner during wars, then what will happen to girls they will be raped, brutalised that they can't withstand.
But there are other corps are available in defence like armed medical forces, engineering forces, law, education etc.
It is not like that girls can not join defence forces they can but not on the borders to fight.

Oh I see there's a lot of hue and cry on this topic. What the hell has happened to the mentality of we Indians. There are big-big posts Saying "NO" to women in defense services. Excuse me?
So Guys let me put my opinion (a brief one).
See, The thing is everyone doesn't have equal endurance, courage, determination and a heart to confront death with close quarters (be it a man or a woman) but there are some who are born with it or acquire it with time. Although girls are said to be quite delicate, but mind it, not all. There are unbeatable women in every nook and corner of the country. Although not all can be able to serve on the country frontiers, but there are some who could and will (sometimes even better than men).
You couldn't confiscate there right to do something for the nation through muscle power. What is wrong if someone who has the courage, will, potential wants to serve the country! How does gender come in between? If, They can qualify the harsh training that men undergo, then why the hell, could they be stopped from entering the defense services.
So you see of course, women are can stand shoulder-to-shoulder with men. The question is totally senseless whether women are fit for defense services or not? Anyone here has full rights to agree or disagree with my opinion (you see I don't deny your rights!) :).

Good evening my dear friend I am shubham we are talking about women's are not fit for defense services but I think women' are fit for defense services because women's are survive in any field and she perfect in defense services women's are strong physically or mentally for most wonderful example in kiran bedi she is IPS officer and she is also proof the women's are fit for defense services. So, encourage the women' s to join the defense services. " jai hind ".

Good morning I am totally agree with this that women are fit for defense Services. According to me we all have same rights. Women can also do all such things that a man can do. I am too not disagree that women are not enough physically stronger than man. But always no need of physical power brain can solve lots of problems. From ancient times we see warrior like Rani Laxmibai, Jayantabai and today's Kiran bedi like women's. If they are fit for police force then defense too.

Hello Friends,
In my opinion Women should be there in Defence Forces and they also have the permanent commission there. Defence not only means the combat but Medical, Ordinance are also some of the fields in Defence sector. Women are allowed and are given permanent commission in every Field of defence except combat which I think is okay. It's scientifically proved that woman body can not hold so much pressure as man body can hold. Women being an officer will require some privacy when commanding in remote area.
Which will require a lot of expenditure because it is going to be difficult for them to be in a bunker.
I am not in favour of sending to Infantry and artillery side but yes they have got the right to be there in other field of defence like ordnance and medical.

No one is unfit for nothing. How can you say even before the women enter into the defense that they are unfit. If you feel they are unfit, how a woman can bear the whole duty of maintaining the family.
No one can say that women are unfit for defense. Whatever a man can do, a woman also can do that.

When we talk about women in army, the main problem arise is of physical power, in this context we only see belong to cities not from villages. In villages they get early in the morning, going to field, bring fodder on their head, in raj they are bringing water from long distance on sand dune where a common male cannot walk, they are doing harvesting work in field in sunny day. Female can be made physical robust by training, it is not a big deal.

Well, You folks are on the right track but you all are not right. Women can be the part of the defense services but at the same time they are not fit for it. Though there are some exceptions but you can't deny the rules designed by nature. Women can be strong enough from their mind but they cannot be as strong as man in physical prospective.
Hence, You can utilize their precised focus for the defense but not the physic, Obviously if you are looking for the best defense force.
As simple as man cannot be as warm as mother.
