Zakir was selfish and he cheated. And it wasn't a minor cheating incident. he put a fellow officer's life in danger for his own personal gain.
Sandhya on the other hand, won the right to be granted a wish and she chose to honor her familial obligation and attend Chavi's wedding.
We all know what would have happened if she hadn't. 1) Bhabo would have been all over her for not being able to balance IPS with family duties. 2) More importantly, Chavi would not have gotten married, due to the wedding dress fraud.
Yes the special shooting training would have proved invaluable to Sandhya as shooting is her weakness. But it is not a weakness she can't overcome in due time with practice.
Honesty, integrity, good judgement...these are very important characteristics of an IPS officer. Sandhya has demonstrated all of these qualitites... Zakir has not.
I want to say one more thing. It's very nice that the IPS academy makes everyone wear identical uniforms...even has cadets address Agrima Singh as Sir...so as to neutralize the gender issue. But you know what...that never really goes away does it?
In fact you yourself are penalizing her as being selfish just because she went to attend Chavi's wedding. Something that was not a risk to national security as far as I can tell.
Sandhya is probably the only cadet in her batch that is a married woman...and no one has the same problems she does.
She can be the best IPS officer...but when she goes home, she'll still be expected to mop the floor and peel potatoes, and fold her husband's laundry. Later when SurYa have children, and if the child does something naughty...Sandhya will be blamed because she was the working mother.
It's never a level playing field. She'll always be proving herself at work (in a predominantly male job) and at home...just because she's a woman.
So while in your opinion...she may not be the best cadet...in my POV...with all her experiences and obstacles...she is definitely the better one.
