India’s Voices of Valour: Col Sofiya Qureshi and Wg Cdr Vyomika Singh Lead Global Briefing on Operation Sindoor

Col Sofiya Qureshi, Wg Cdr Vyomika Singh


It was a pleasant surprise to watch two young Indian women in the military uniforms briefing the world about India’s strikes on nine terrorist locations in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) on May 7 morning. It was an unusual moment of pride for India as Colonel Sofiya Qureshi of the Indian Army and Wing Commander Vyomika Singh of the Indian Air Force co- anchored the global media briefing on Operation Sindoor along with Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri.

Their presence at the forefront of high-stakes communication heralded the rise of Indian women in national security leadership. Col. Sofiya and Wg Cdr Vyomika not merely briefed the media; rather they embodied a new narrative of Indian military leadership.

Naturally then, these two faces have generated widespread public interests in knowing who they really are.

Colonel Sofiya Qureshi: A Trailblazer in Military Communications

35-year-old Col. Sofiya Qureshi belongs to the Indian Army’s Corps of Signals with expertise in military communications and information systems. This young woman officer has an impeccable track record as being the first Indian woman officer to command a military contingent at a multinational exercise – Exercise Force 18, hosted in Pune. It was a major achievement as she led the Indian contingent of 40 members in the exercise with 18 countries participating in it.

This postgraduate in biochemistry earned fame after she was selected to serve in the UN Peacekeeping Mission in Congo in 2006. Col Sofia now has over six years of experience in peacekeeping operations.

Sofiya inherited this passion for valour from her grandfather, who was an Army veteran. That also was the reason why she chose to marry an armed force officer from the Mechanised Infantry.

Col Sofiya’s role in co-leading the briefing signified the dawn of a new era in Indian defence strategy.

Wing Commander Vyomika Singh: Skies of Grit and Grace

Wg Cdr Vyomika Singh’s presence representing the Indian Air Force at the briefing complimented the woman power in military leadership. She was part of that defining moment that showcased the rise of women as leaders of India’s military communication and public engagement strategy. Her presence, alongside Col Sofiya Qureshi, was not ceremonial but a reflection of India’s intent to present a forward-looking perspective on national security on the global stage.

Wg Cdr Vyomika’s childhood dream to fly landed her into the Air Force. She owns a splendid record in flying helicopters such as the Chetak and Cheetah for over 2,500 hours. It makes her unmatched in flying in these high-altitude regions.

This is not her only accomplishments of valour. She has participated in helicopter operations in some of the most challenging and dangerous terrains, including Jammu and Kashmir and the Northeast.

Commissioned under the 21st SSC (Women) Flying Pilot Course on December 18, 2004, Vyomika received a permanent commission in 2019–an exceptional accomplishment for women officers in the Indian Air Force.

Vyomika has led numerous high-profile rescue missions in her career and played a critical role in evacuating stranded people during the 2020 disaster in Arunachal Pradesh. In 2021, she conquered the daunting peak of Mount Manirang at 21,650 feet and also participated in an all-women mountain expedition involving the three Indian armed forces.

In this way, the inclusion of these women officers in the international media briefing symbolizes professionalism in India’s armed forces.

Kerala IAS officer N Prasanth’s suspension extended again

Kerala IAS officer N Prasanth

The suspended Kerala IAS officer, N Prasanth (IAS:2007:KL), is in news again for a wrong reason. His suspension has been further extended for six months. The action was taken after he refused to budge from his allegations against the government during the hearing held on the instructions of the state Chief Minister.

The Suspension Review Committee met on May 5, and recommended the extension of his suspension. The Department of Public Administration issued an order on May 7 extending his suspension for another six months, effective from May 10.

His suspension had been extended first time for four months on January 9. The order to extend it further was issued as its term was to expire on May 9.

The www.legendofficers.com had reported that Prasanth was waging a protracted battle as the then Chief Secretary Sarada Muraleedharan (IAS:1990:KL) was to retire on April 30, and Prasanth’s original betenoire, A Jayathilak (IAS:1991:KL), was likely to take over as Chief Secretary. And this has proved true.

Prasanth’s outburst on social media had invited suspension for him on November 11, 2024, yet he remained unstoppable and continued to level serious allegations against senior bureaucrats, including the then Additional Chief Secretary A Jayathilak, IAS officer K Gopalakrishnan (IAS:2013:KL), and later turned his guns at the then Chief Secretary Sarada Muraleedharan herself. He went to the extent of slapping legal notices on them, accusing them of fabricating charges and conspiring against him. Earlier, he called for criminal proceedings against Jayathilak, Gopalakrishnan, and a media group, accusing them of conspiracy and the fabrication of documents against him.

Prasanth was even called for a personal hearing by Muraleedharan but he continued his belligerence. He even threatened the government, saying that the rule of law is also applicable to the government and it should not behave in a manner that those aggrieved can resort to legal redress.

Interestingly, Prasanth even asked the government not to show any hurry to revoke his suspension without redressing the issues raised by him, little knowing that he was headed for another extension, rather than revocation, of his suspension.
