Create sub directories recursively - Bash script

In some situations, I want to create sub directories recursively. It is so simple in Bash. Assume that we have to create directory with name main.

for dir in */; do
  mkdir "$dir/main"
done

Remove sub directories recursively

for dir in */; do
  rm -rf "$dir/main"
done
