Abstract Empowerment of women is indispensable for the development or progress of a nation. Without the support of women, men alone cannot bring the desired changes in the growth and economy of a nation. Since times immemorial, women have been economically dependent on men. They were not allowed to participate in the decision-making process, they have been accorded a subordinate status to men. Now, with the efforts of various feminists and activists, the times are changing and women are gradually becoming economically self- dependent. But, the other side of these economically self-dependent women is that they have almost become a multi tasking machine for the reason that they are still not absolved of their traditional identity as a homemaker. They have to face different kinds of problems and difficulties both at their workplace as well as home. The irony is that women find themselves unable to keep people happy and satisfied both at workplace and at her home. Indeed, there is a need to redefine the status of women in true sense and also the need of gender sensitization to help women to attain their actual emancipation.
