The top court observed that the submissions made by the government based on a written note they had submitted was a "flawed notion". The government had contended&nbsp;that&nbsp;"troops are not yet mentally schooled to accept women officers in command of units" since they are "predominantly drawn from a rural background". A Supreme Court bench of Justices DY Chandrachud and Ajay Rastogi pulled up the government saying,&nbsp;"physiological features of women have no link to their rights. The mindset must change".
