Women and their status in any society is an index of its civilization. Women are considered as equal partners in the paradigm process of development. Women are out and out disadvantaged compared to men and face all manners of cultural, social, legal and economic obstacles that men most often do not face at all. The gender inequalities are not the outcome of the lack of womens integration in the development of their skill, credit and resources. The root cause of this problem lies in the social structures, institutions, values and beliefs which create and perpetuate the womens subordination. Women constitute half of the humanity and are endowed with aptitude capabilities and capabilities for contribution of progress and development of humanity on par with men.
