identification of the research and reducing the possible weaknesses. After deciding the area of target and using appropriate sources to research, the results are needed to be interpreted. The information is required to be evaluated, which has been gathered with the modifications in searching. At this point, the gaps in the literature are required to be highlighted with the flaws while ensuring the pertinent issues for the future studies (Bryman & Bell, 2007). The research proposal is an important
