Following the death of her husband, she left behind her life as a company secretary. She contested in the Services Selection Board (SSB) and cleared in the 'widow' category in her second attempt.

She will be joining the Officers Training Academy of the Indian Army in April this year.

 
Gauri will undergo 49 weeks of training at the academy. The 31-year-old will then be inducted into the army as a lieutenant in March 2020. 

She competed with 16 candidates during the SSB and she topped the exam and qualified for training at OTA.
