Original value is not modified in call by value but it is modified in call by reference.

Call by Value:

In call by value,the original value is not modified.
In call by value,value being passed to the function is locally stored by the function parameter in stack memory location.
If you change the value of the function parameter,it is changed for the current function only.
It will not change the value of a variable inside the caller method such as main().

Call by Reference:

In call by reference,the original value is modified because we pass reference(address).
Here,the address of the value is passed in the function,so actual and formal arguments share the same address space.
Hence,value changed inside the function is reflected inside as well as outside the function.
