On Air Force Day, we salute the bravery of Flight Lieutenant Gunjan Saxena and Flight Lieutenant Srividya Rajan, who were the Indian Air Force's first women aviators to fly in the Kargil War Zone in 1999.

Gunjan Saxena and Srividya Rajan are two names that have been forgotten by most of Indians. These women were India’s first women combat aviators who entered into the heart of the war zone of Kargil, seventeen years ago. This story is a salute to their bravery.
