The Army Training Command headquartered at Shimla put out a post on X of the two woman officers ‘pipping’ their father. Pipping is a term used to adorn a new set of ranks displayed on the shoulder of an officer’s uniform.

“This historic occasion not only reminds the strength, dedication, legacy carried forward by women in uniform but also highlights the spirit of ‘Nari Shakti’ within our Armed forces,” the post on X said.
