Women are inspiring the world in every other field and more in today’s world. They stand tall and are a role model for generations to come and honestly, their hard work, talent and their immense ability to achieve have brought them to where they are today.

Here’s another one that has inspired us today and winning the internet. Garima Yadav, won ‘Miss Charming Face India 2017-2018’ and was the face of various brands and organisations.
But, she wanted to achieve something solid and prove her mettle. Here’s her story:
Lieutenant Garima Yadav secured AIR -2 in CDS 1 2017 and joined the OTA Chennai, she got commissioned into the Army after passing out from the academy. “I am a single mother-child, and she has been there for me in all my ups and downs, motivating me, she’s a strong woman and my true inspiration I just wanted to make her proud. I am from army public school Ddagshai (Shimla) and did BA economic from St Stephen’s College New Delhi, I was preparing for civil services but I guess army was my true calling, I got recommended in my 1st attempt. Before that I was working as an MC for events as a part-time job, while preparing for exams, from there I was selected for a pageant called India’s miss charming face’s auditions, I won the pageant in November 2017 and was selected for next pageant at international level which was to b held in Italy, but I chose to join OTA Chennai instead. I had a wonderful experience at the OTA, at first it was difficult for me to cope up with the tough training, the weather was also unfavorable, I did not have very good physical standards but somehow I managed for first few months, I didn’t give up and improved drastically. I actively participated in all curriculum activities. People have a wrong conception that you have to be good at all sports, physically strong to get selected in the SSB, that’s not true, you just should be willing to accept your weaknesses and work on them, should always endeavor to get better and better every day. One should b honest, positive, creative and solution orientated that’s all you need rest everything will follow.”
