In a woman’s life marriage plays a very crucial role.A lot of changes take place in her life. They face an different situation in life. But their slavery only changes from their father to husband.

In many countries, still men and women are paid unequal wages for equal works. If it is seen honestly, we will find that women work more than men. In case of working women, the problem is worse.

Free of prejudice and oppression?
