The development of a economy is measured by taking into account the technological and material advances, as well as through the quality of life of its citizens, especially, the status of the marginalized. But development in numerous regions has generally bypassed a prominent marginalized group, women, who constitute nearly 50 percent of the total population. It isn't possible to attain true development by keeping half of its resources idle. Development is primarily treated as human development, with the direct involvement of women, through participation and empowerment. No country can achieve the thing of development without taking into account the gender factor, that is, without integrating the woman like factor into development. To gain the ideal of optimum application of human resources, the role of women and men must be viewed from a reciprocal relationship rather than from a competitive bone. Women spend their income on the basic requirements of life, when compared to men and this consummation has brought women as the focus of economical development. A woman is the pivot around which the family, society and humanity itself revolves. The role and status of women form an integral role of the structure of a society. They're the implicit contributors towards the productivity and development of a nation. By tapping and converting this implicit energy into kinetic energy, it's possible to make life meaningful for human beings, in general and women in roleicular. Now the notion' development without women cannot take place' is gaining significance. The development of women and the development by women have come intertwined issue for the economical development of a nation. The present study is an attempt in this direction. The coming chapters are concerned with the analysis of the problem.
