The liquid molecules which are below the surface are in equilibrium. The liquid molecules which are at the surface are attracted by other molecules in downward direction. So, a force is originated to balance the surface molecules which is equal but opposite in direction to the downward force. This force is called surface tension.

Hey Buddy!
The tension of the surface film of a liquid caused by the attraction of the particles in the surface layer by the bulk of the liquid, which tends to minimize surface area.
I hope it's help for you!
