Study says 'women bias' in command, seeks review of Army induction policy

The study involved the women officers posted in Army's Brahmastra Corps (17 Corps) which has eight such officers in Command (other than AMC).

The in-house review was conducted based on demonstrated performance of these officers, leading to identification of several issues.

These issues included difficulties in interpersonal relations, a tendency to complain, over exerting command centralized decision-making, a misplaced sense of entitlement, a lack of empathy, low tolerance for ambiguity, and an overall lack of ambition.

The study has not enumerated only the problem areas but has followed it with the reasons attributable to the concerns with a recommendation for deeper delving ahead.

In Sidharth Vishwanath's metaphorically rich Sorgavaasal, we are shown how the prison, which operates much like hell, is a place where sinners rule, and more often than not, the innocent are condemned to either rot or turn sinners themselves.
