Son of an Anganwadi helper from a remote village, Bharat Darbarsingh Jadhav had everything going for him — a cushy job in one of the largest IT companies and a five-figure salary to boot.
But Yadav (25) was not one to rest on his laurels. He wanted to do something different. His dream was to join the army. He did take a shot at it but failed to clear the NDA entrance examination in 2010.
Not one to give up, he soldiered on in spite of his pressing job as a systems engineer and managed to crack the Combined Defence Services exam.
So when he told his colleagues at the TCS office in Hinjewadi recently that he was quitting his high-paying job — a dream for many urban youths — to join the Indian Army as an officer, they were surprised to say the least.

A native of Sutala Budruk village in Buldhana district of Maharastra, Bharat Darbarsingh Jadhav lost his father when he was in Class V but he did not led the tragedy deter him. A bright student, he cleared the BE examination from Shri Santh Gajanan Maharaj College of Engineering, Shegaon, and got a job at TCS, Hinjewadi in 2014.
But Yadav (25) was not one to rest on his laurels. He wanted to do something different. His dream was to join the army. He did take a shot at it but failed to clear the NDA entrance examination in 2010.
Not one to give up, he soldiered on in spite of his pressing job as a systems engineer and managed to crack the Combined Defence Services Exam. As the CDS exam tests not only the mental ability of a candidate but also the physical ability as well, Yadav also ran a distance of 3 km every day to remain fit.
Bharat’s elder sister is a nurse at the government medical college while his younger sister has joined Sashastra Seema Bal (SSB). His younger brother is a jawan in Corps of Signals with the Army.
Bharat ranked 108th out of 153 candidates and will be joining Officers Training Academy (OTA), Chennai in the first week of April. Bharat says, he would like to join the infantry arm of the army as it is a field posting.
Joining the army was a long cherished dream. “When I took up the job as a system engineer in 2014 I knew this was not the place I wanted to be for the rest of my life. I do not want to sit in an office doing monotonous work. I wanted to do something out of the ordinary for the country.”
Congratulations and good luck, warrior!
