Hello Mrunal, It's good to see that you are interested in NDA but unfortunately, female aspirants can not join National Defense Academy. But don't get dishearten there are various career scopes in Indian army and Indian air force you may check them out. All the best.

As per now, female candidates cannot join NDA. But, there are provisions on which government is working on, so that in the upcoming years girls can also join defense through NDA. But, for joining defense, girls can apply through B.Sc. nursing, CDS as a medical officer etc.
