I te tau 2016, ko Lt Col Sophia Qureshi (kua eke te apiha inaianei) i whakahīhītia te motu na roto i te noho hei Apiha wahine tuatahi ki te arahi i tetahi ope hoia Inia ki tetahi mahi hoia a motu. E kiia ana ko 'Whakamahinga 18', koinei te whakangungu hoia nui rawa atu o tawahi i whakahaerehia e Inia, a ko Lt Col Qureshi anake te wahine rangatira i roto i nga roopu 18 i uru mai.
He tohu matū koiora a Lt Col Qureshi, ā, kua mahi ia i te United Nations Peacekeeping Operation i Congo i te tau 2006. Kua moea e ia he āpiha o te Ope Taua mai i te Mechanized Infantry, me tana koroua hoki i te Ope Taua. I a ia e korero ana mo te mahi a te Ope Taua i roto i nga misioni tiaki rangimarie, i kii ia ki tetahi tomokanga, I enei misioni, ka aro turuki matou i nga whakamutu ahi i aua whenua me te awhina ano hoki i nga mahi atawhai tangata. Ko te mahi he whakapumau i te rangimarie ki nga waahi kua pa ki te pakanga.
Kare he korero, he wa whakahīhī, ā, i tono ia ki ngā wāhine o te ope hōia kia whakapau kaha mo te motu me te whakahīhī i te katoa. Ma te korero mo te whakatutukitanga a Lt Col Qureshi, ka kii te Kaihautu Ope Taua o te Tonga ki a Lt Gen Bipin Rawat ki tetahi tomokanga, I te Ope Taua, e whakapono ana matou ki te whai waahi me te kawenga rite. I roto i te Ope Taua, karekau he rereketanga i waenga i nga apiha tane me nga wahine. Kua tohua ia ehara i te mea he wahine ia engari na te mea kei a ia nga pukenga me nga ahuatanga rangatira hei kawe i te kawenga.
