For the first, which two women officers have been selected to join as ‘Observers’ (Airborne Tacticians) in the Indian Navy’s helicopter stream that would ultimately pave the way for women being posted in frontline warships?

Harita Kaur Deol and Divya Ajith Kumar

Kumudini Tyagi and Riti Singh

Punita Arora and Padmavathy Bandopadhyay

Gunjan Saxena and Srividya Rajan

Explanation:

In a first, two women officers have been selected to join as ‘Observers’ (Airborne Tacticians) in the Indian Navy’s helicopter stream that would ultimately pave the way for women being posted in frontline warships.
Sub Lieutenant (SLt) Kumudini Tyagi and SLt Riti Singh would, in effect, be the first set of women airborne tacticians in India who would operate from the deck of warships.
Earlier, entry of women was restricted to the fixed wing aircraft that took off and landed ashore.

Hence option 2nd is correct.
