No Woman’s Land

As a young girl, Ankita dreamt of becoming a soldier and serving the nation. This was an impossible dream at a time when the Army was a male bastion. With all odds against her—a strict father, a patriarchal set-up, a small-town upbringing—Ankita kept crossing all hurdles to be inducted as a lady officer of the Indian Army. Ankita earned the distinction of being posted in counter-insurgency areas and became a dynamic officer of the Army Ordnance Corps, providing logistics support in military operations. Oh, and after giving up guns, shealso won beauty pageants! Hers is a story of grit, blood, sweat, courage, and perseverance, narrated in her inimitable humorous style. No Woman’s Land is an inspirational and entertaining memoir of a lady soldier who etched her footprints in the sands of time.
