Bhawana Kanth

Flight Lieutenant Bhawana Kanth is a symbol of the soaring aspirations of Mithila's daughters. Hailing from Darbhanga, she created history in 2016 by becoming one of the first three female fighter pilots inducted into the Indian Air Force. Flying the MiG-21 Bison, she shattered the ultimate glass ceiling in the Indian military. Her journey from the plains of Mithila to the skies inspires millions of girls to dream without limits.
