After 51 years of existence, the Border Security Force (BSF) has made history by appointing its first woman field officer. Tanushree Pareek, a 25-year-old from Bikaner, Rajasthan, became the first woman to join the BSF in the officer rank. She had been selected after clearing the all-India examination conducted by UPSC in 2014. She had to undergo 52 weeks of an intensive training programme that comprised of training, intelligence gathering, and battle craft, among other border guarding tasks.
Tanushree was felicitated in a convocation ceremony held in the BSF Academy at Tekanpur in Madhya Pradesh's Gwalior district. It was Home Minister Rajnath Singh himself who put the rank stars on her shoulder.
