Abstract
World is changing fast. Due to digital development new career avenues are emerging. People could get wide range of opportunities from any field of interest. Present situation is favorable for personal development which will further result in national development. On the contrary, socialization process in family still promotes gender discrimination. This becomes major obstacle especially in girls’ career development process. Unfortunately women’s life never be oriented towards career. Thus, women have low career aspiration. More or less it is a global scenario. Much awareness programs from grass root level are required. Community participation could play a major role in developing career aspirations among women. Presently India started multidimentional efforts for women empowerment. Developing career aspirations among women is crucial. Hence attention towards this issue is required at priority level.
