With the passage of time, in the new arena of the modern world, women are facing challenges in the competitive world. They are participating equally in every sector in developed countries and prove themselves. On the other hand in developing countries, although women are playing traditional roles and dependent upon their spouses for their economic necessity, yet by getting the formal education they are also coming out of seclusion of men.
