“Today as I become an officer, it still feels surreal. It is a dream come true. I used to dream of this day almost every night. To stand in my uniform, in front of my father and mother, who have fought all the difficulties in their lives to get me here. However, due to Covid-19 that could not happen,” She expressed.

”But I am happy that they could see the ceremony on television. When I told my parents that I want to be in defence, they were a little worried like any parent. But they never tried to stop me. In fact, they have always been the pillars of my life,” she added.

Aanchal is a graduate in Computer Science from Sitaram Jaju Government Girls College in Neemuch, MP and she worked as a sub- inspect in the MP Police Department and as a labour inspector in MP labour department for 8 months.
