Summary/Abstract: This study attempts to find out the challenges faced by the Bangladeshi women serving in the national security institutions from three broad spheres. Furthermore, it explains the challenges based on the liberal feminist theory, which talks about gender equality in the wor- kplace and society. This paper critically analyzes the masculine nature of the security institutions and the existing gender power disparities within these institutions in Bangladesh.
