Dear aspirant

Earlier, the NDA exam was taken only by unmarried male candidates and female candidates were not allowed to take the exam. However, in an interim order passed by the Supreme Court of India on August 18, 2021, the court has allowed girls/ women to take the NDA exam.

Even though the Supreme Court has passed this order to allow women applicants to appear for the NDA 2 2021 exam to be held on November 14. It is to be noted that the NDA 2 application form 2021 window is closed now. So going by the SC order it is expected that UPSC might open the NDA 2 2021 application window once again for the female candidates to apply for the NDA exam.

So if the application form windows open once again then you can apply from this year only or otherwise you will have to wait for the next attempt. NDA exam is held twice a year.

Dear Student,

I regret to inform you that female candidates are not eligible to apply for NDA 2022 exam, and there are no further decision made as of now for female candidates to apply for NDA.

Only male candidates who fulfill the eligibility criteria are eligible. To join in Indian Army, Indian Navy or Indian Air Force female candidates must have passed 3 year degree or 4 year B.E/B.tech or Post graduation and must fulfill other eligibility criteria.

Happy Learning!
