Permanent commission to ATC officers welcome change: Cdr Prasanna

Four of these are lady officers.

The fight for justice had begun in October 2010 when a group of women who served in the armed forces approached the apex court seeking a policy change that would ensure permanent commission for lady officers, says Commander Prasanna Edayilliam (retired).

Though lady officers with the Air Force and the Army, along with those in the education and logistics wings of the Indian Navy, had received permanent commissions through various Supreme Court orders, the same had remained a dream for those posted with the ATC at various bases.
