Major Radhika Sen, a distinguished officer of the Indian Army, showcased the crucial role of women in the Armed Forces by leading the mechanised forces on the Kartavya Path during the Republic Day Parade on January 26, 2025. Standing atop the indigenously manufactured Nandighosh, a quick reaction force vehicle by Bharat Forge, Major Sen represented the growing empowerment and capabilities of women in the defense sector.

Speaking to ANI, Major Sen shared her excitement about participating in the prestigious parade. โ€œI am part of the mechanised forces marching on Kartavya Path. I will be standing on Nandighosh, which is a mine-protected armoured personnel carrier. It is an endeavour by our own companies to take a step forward in defense manufacturing,โ€ she said.

The Nandighosh vehicle, capable of carrying eight personnel along with a driver and co-driver, has proven its effectiveness in counter-insurgency and counter-terrorism operations, as well as in hilly terrains. Highlighting its significance, Major Sen added, โ€œThese vehicles are now being introduced in United Nations missions, where we are proving ourselves on a global forum in defense manufacturing.โ€

Reflecting on her journey, Major Sen fondly recalled her childhood memories of watching the Republic Day Parade on television and expressed her pride in being part of it. โ€œThis time, I would be marching. It is a very happy and pleasant feeling. I am sure my parents would be proud of me,โ€ she said.

Major Radhika Senโ€™s illustrious career also includes being an Indian peacekeeper who served with the UN mission in Congo, where she was honored with the prestigious โ€˜United Nations Military Gender Advocate of the Yearโ€™ award in 2023.

Adding to the inspiring participation of women in this yearโ€™s parade, Captain Ritika Khareta led the Corps of Signals contingent. โ€œCorps of Signals is a combat support arm responsible for the Army network, cyber warfare, and electronic warfare. I thank my contingent for marching on my word of command and trusting me as their leader,โ€ said Captain Khareta.

The Republic Day Parade commenced with Prime Minister Narendra Modi laying a wreath at the National War Memorial, followed by President Droupadi Murmu taking the ceremonial salute. The event included a vibrant cultural performance by 300 artists from across the country and a ceremonial march past featuring units from the Armed Forces, Para-Military Forces, Auxiliary Civil Forces, NCC, NSS, and even an Indonesian contingent.

This yearโ€™s parade once again highlighted Indiaโ€™s diverse culture, growing defence capabilities, and the increasing representation of women in pivotal roles.
