Girls are not considered eligible for the National Defense Academy. The Academy, till now, is only for Male candidates. However, as per sources, proposal has been made to consider girls for the National Defense Academy but has not been approved yet.
Girl candidates, willing to join Defense Forces of India, are sent to the Officers Training Academy for necessary training but in order to be eligible to join any Defense Forces, you must hold a bachelors degree.

Hi


NDA stands for the National Defense Academy. This is one of the most prestigious examinations in India.
It is conducted by the UPSC (Union Public Service Commission) in India every year to recruit candidates for the Indian Army, Navy and Air Force.



Now before I answer your query, I am going to list down the Basic Eligibility Criteria's to be able to sit for the NDA exam :-


1. You should be a minimum 12th pass from a recognized state board in India.

2. Your age should be within 16.5 years to 19 years as in the year of applying. No relaxations.

3. Only male Indian candidates can apply. Not for females.

4. One should be physically fit.

5. If applying for the Indian Navy or Air Force, one should have studied Maths and Physics as compulsory subjects.


Now coming to your question, I am really sorry to state that you (girls) are not eligible for the NDA 1 or 2 exams. Its as specified in the rules and regulations.


However girls can enter army later on after graduation by university entry scheme.

So firstly you have to choose any good graduation stream, and then study it for the coming 3 years. Only after that you can apply for the Indian Army.


If you want more information on the same, Please Click Here to visit the official website of the UPSC.


Hope this helps

All the best

Regards

No,Girls are not eligible for NDA exam As Only unmarried male Indian candidates can apply for the Same.

The reason behind this may be as the Girls are not suitable for the physical training provided to the NDA cadets as that training is too hard for the girls that may effect them for their Future life.

Dear Bholar,


I am sorry to say that girls cannot give the NDA exam conducted by union public service commission (UPSC) , but girls have a great opportunity in army as technical graduate, now your question will be how to join army??

the answer is:

UPSC has 2 schemes:
1) technical graduate scheme
2)NCC direct entry scheme

They have been further classified below:
----------------------------------------

1)technical graduate scheme:-
--------------------------------
after your graduation in respective field as electronics engineering field electrical engineering field mechanical field civil field architecture communication/telecommunication etc you are eligible for direct entry scheme for joining army.

NCC direct entry scheme:-
---------------------------I
f you are having NCC 'C' certificate in respective 'army','air force',and'navy' you will be eligible for joining army.

after you been eligible for direct entry scheme, you need to fill forms for respective entry and then you will face SSB

(service selection board) in which you will face interview, various officers will scan you to the most in the interview,

task and other tests like psychology test etc.

If your are selected here you will undergo a MEDICAL test and then you have to wait for you merit list to come...

if you are in the list you are ready to serve the army..!!!


Best of luck in serving the indian army!!!

Dear There ,

Sorry to say but i just want to tell you that you cannot appear in any of the NDA exams because you do not fulfill the eligibility criteria required for a candidate to appear in the NDA exam , which is conducted twice in a year by UPSC.

The Required Eligibility Criteria are :

* You must be an Indian Citizen.

* You must be an unmarried male.

* Your age must lie in between 16.5-19 years.

* You must have passed 12th with PCM as your key subjects from any recognized college / school.

* You should be physically & Mentally fit.

So , Based on the above , you cannot appear in the exam as the exam is conducted only for unmarried males under the above specified age group.'

Moreover , if you want to join Defense , then you can fulfill your dream through CDS entrance exam but for this you have to complete your graduation first.

This is the information i have to the best of my knowledge regarding your query. Hope the information will help you to the extent you want.

only males are eligible for NDA.... it's too ridiculous. There are many girls who dream for joining NDA , but any his they have to keep themselves back due to the fact that they are still living in a male dominating democratic country!!! I would like to advise all female NDA aspirants to raise their voice against this discrimination's. Such a discrimination should prevail in the country of Rani Lakshmi Bai...
