Women do not serve in forward combatant roles in our forces as it is not expected of them to (and not necessary). Military is a traditionally male domain and it should remain so. Women are certainly welcome to do non-combatant roles such as doctors, engineers, transport pilots, drone operators, administration officers etc. But there's absolutely no point of getting women combatants in frontline combat divisions. BSF is fine though.
Regarding Army chief.. first let India get an Army chief hailing from every corner of the country and then we can think of putting women in combat roles.
May be u should check out - Indra Nooyi(Pepsico Ltd CEO), Kiran Majumdar-Shaw(Biocon Chairman & MD), Chanda Kochhar(ICICI CEO and MD)
not to forget - Golda Meyir , Indira Gandhi or Margaret Thatcher.
Managing military affairs is a totally different world than civilian tasks, mate. Women may make good leaders but forward roles in armed forces is a no-no.

We too have women serving in roles of non-combat pilots and they do a fine job. It is just that having different roles set for men and women doesn't mean one is discriminated from another. Only stupid insecure feminists think like that.
Do you see men crying about not being able to give birth to kids or be poorer at multi-tasking than women (scientifically proven fact)?
You don't.
So I don't understand why should women serve in every role that males serve. Is this an insecurity that they have or is it just cheap political debate that feminist idiots use to stay in limelight?
I think she is the highest ranked female military officer anywhere in the world:
General Ann Elizabeth Dunwoody

Non-combatant and logistics division. That's fine with everyone I think.
It is not imperative of us to do everything the West does. There are a lot of other more useful things that west does and we don't do. If that cannot be done, then there's no need for this either.
Subcontinental society is more family oriented and women are more towards family than in the west where individualist lifestyle is more predominant. So we cannot have everything they have. Simple as that.
Now ladies please point me towards any man crying for not being given the role of a woman.
