Aizawl : Six women officers of Indian Army have become the first to break into a hitherto male bastion by joining a course in low-intensity conflict operations at the Counter-Insurgency and Jungle Warfare School (CIJWS) in Mizoram’s Vairengte.

 A senior officer of the institute, which has trained batches of US Marines and soldiers of several other countries in guerrilla tactics, told TOI on Tuesday that women military officers enrolling for the course marks a pivotal step for the Army.

 The course is rated highly for its specialised training in jungle warfare. Officers from Bangladesh, Bhutan, France, Malaysia, Nepal, and Sri Lanka have visited the institute so far this year to learn reflex firing, tactical strategies, and how to survive on difficult terrain. “All of this prepares them for real-world combat situations where precision and stealth are crucial to success,” the officer said.

 The idea of setting up the jungle warfare school was conceived by former Chief of Army Staff, Field Marshal Sam Manekshaw, in 1967, when Indian soldiers suffered heavy casualties at the hands of NorthEast insurgents adept at hit-and-run guerrilla strikes. Indian soldiers were till then only trained in conventional warfare. The motto of the institute is “Fight The Guerrilla Like A Guerrilla”.
