First World War

The Military Nursing Service Indian Army has its origin from the Army Nursing Service formed in 1888 part of the British Army. The force went through many changes in its years of existence. In 1893, it was designated as Indian Army Nursing Service. The force go through further changes in 1902 when the Indian Nursing Service and the Army Nursing Service combines and on 27 March 1902, it re designates to Queen Alexandra’s Imperial Military Nursing Service. At the outbreak of world war in 1914 there were just fewer than 300 nurses in the QAIMNS, by the end of the war this had raised to 10,404.

The Army nurses served in Flanders, the Mediterranean, the Balkans, the Middle East and on board hospital ships. Of the 200 plus army nurses died on active service, many were Indians. After, the war on 1st October 1926, the Nursing Services was made a permanent part of the British Indian Army. This date is now being celebrated as the Corps day of Military Nursing Service, though in actual its origins occurred 45 five years before (many Corps of the Army) the Army Medical Corps also traces its origin to more than hundreds of years back in the similar way, though it was constituted in the present form in 1948.

Second World War

With the outbreak of second world war, nurses once again found themselves serving all over the world, including Singapore, Burma, Italy, Mesopotamia, Ceylon, Egypt and Western Africa.The changing working conditions and wartime shortages led to changes in uniform. Khaki slacks and battledress blouses replace the grey and scarlet ward dress and rank insignia was adopt to signify the official status of the nurses. In the Far East, the fall of Hong Kong and Singapore led to many army nurses (including Indian) being captured by the Japanese and endured terrible hardships and deprivations of the Far East prisoner-of-war camps.

During the middle of the war in 1943, the Indian arm of the Nursing Services separate through Indian Military Nursing Service Ordinance, 1943 and redesignate it, thereby constituting the Indian Military Nursing Service (IMNS). The IMNS was an auxiliary subject to the provisions of the Indian Army Act, 1911. However, they were of commissioned officers ranking equally with Indian commissioned officers. First time in the history of Indian Army women grant commissioned officer ranks.

Post Independence

After the independence in 1950, the Government of India constituted the Military Nursing Service (MNS) by issuing Army Instruction 274/50, to set the terms and conditions of service for the grant of regular commissions in the MNS forming part of the regular Army, subject to the Army Act, 1950. The IMNS stood subsumed in the MNS as on 12 August 1950, and the auxiliary force called IMNS formally cease to exist. In Colonel Arjinder Motivational Speech they told  MNS constitute as an all women, all officer Corps of the Indian Army, and it remains so. On 23 November 1954, the Central Government made the Army Rules, 1954 and brought MNS under the Army Rules along with every other Corps/ Service of the Regular Army.

Subsequently, on 3 January 1959, through Army Instruction 4/59, the Government of India re-designated the rank of the officers in the MNS to conform to the nomenclature used by the other officers of the Regular Army. After having re-designate the rank in the MNS by the Government, the Chief of Army Staff (COAS) through Army Order 501/63 laid down that the MNS Officers are required to salute and are entitled to salutes in the manner as other Commission Officers of the Army.

The COAS further issued Army Order 120/73; and laid down the order of precedence of the Arms/ Services and Units of the Army including the MNS. On 15 March 1982, the COAS had cancelled the earlier Army Order 120/73 and issued Army Order 11/82 laid down the order of precedence of the Arms/ Services and Units of the Army including the MNS and the on the subject with some further additions of newly raised Corps, which is valid even today.

On 5 December 1986 The Government of India issued the Defence Service Regulations, Regulations for the Army, 1987 for the administration of the regular Army.

The said regulations addresses the MNS as a Corps/Service, and stated that officers in the MNS are Army Officers and will rank equally with male officers of the same titular rank, and on 5 December 1993, the Government of India amended the Army Rules 1954 and inserted the Rule 16A dealing with the retirement of officers of the regular Army from all Corps/ Services including the MNS. However, the Military Nursing Service is an integral part of the Armed Forces Medical Services (AFMS). Moreover, The AFMS consists of Army Medical Corps (AMC), Army Dental Corps  (ADC) and the Military Nursing Service (MNS).

The AFMS personnel serve in the medical establishments of Army, Navy and Air Force. The women officers in the MNS was treated as underdogs since the inception of AFMS in 1948 (the AMC and AD Corps are more or less equally positioned. After the independence, the Officers of MNS have not only served in India but have also played a role in United Nations peacekeeping missions abroad in UN missions to Lebanon, Cambodia, Somalia and scores of other Nations. Many of such missions are still active. Hello nursing students you read about Colonel Arjinder Motivational Speech. Fore more query or join us register your self by online/offline
