Wing commanders Vyomika Singh and Colonel Sofiya Qureshi and Foreign Minister Vikram Misri briefed the country on Wednesday on Wednesday on a missile strike against India on Pakistan and POK against India during the midnight period, placing nine terrorist camps as part of the Sindoor operation.
Who is Colonel Sofia Curreci?
Colonel Sofiya Quershi is an official of the Indian Army Signal Army. She engraved her name in military history with many groundbreaking achievements. She is only 35 years old and carries a legacy that continues to inspire many people and takes role models as an example.
In March 2016, Colonel Qureshi made history when he became the first female officer to lead the Indian Army contingent in a transnational military exercise. The activity is Sports Force 18 and remains the largest foreign military exercise ever in India. The War Games will be held in Pune from March 2 to March 8, including troops from ASEAN countries and 18 countries including major global powers such as Japan, Russia, China, the United States, South Korea, South Korea, New Zealand and Australia.
Qureshi leads her team to conduct critical training departments, highlighting Peacekeeping Operations (PKOs) and Humanitarian Mining Operations (HMAs). She reportedly served as a military observer in the United Nations peacekeeping mission in Congo in 2006 and has been actively involved in peacekeeping operations since 2010 and continues to make outstanding contributions in the field.
Wing Commander Vyomika Singh's journey to the Air Force began when she wanted to fly, when she was in school. Her name “Vyomika” indicates a person who lives in the sky or the daughter of the sky. She continued to join the National Craftsman Army (NCC) and earned her engineering degree, continuing to pursue her goals.
Vyomika became the first person in her family to become part of the armed forces. She was appointed as a helicopter pilot for the Indian Air Force. On December 18, 2019, she received a permanent committee at the Flight Branch.
She operates different helicopters such as Cheetah and Chetak in the difficult terrain of J&K in the northeast. Vyomika has reportedly recorded over 2500 flight times and participated in different missions, which were conducted in Arunachal Pradesh in November 2020.
