Abstract


Migration is a significant feature of human civilization. Migration in India has existed historically, but, in the context of globalization and opening up of the world economy it has assumed special significance for the country and its regions. Social mobility or circumstantial shift from one place to another in search of livelihood and survival is not new, this has been happening since the advent of human civilization. Migrant work force in India is mostly influenced by social structures and developmental patterns. The developmental policies of all most all the regional governments have accelerated the process of migration since Independence. Uneven development is the main cause of migration. This study examines the ischolar_main cause and severity of migrants in Indian population and the factors associated with the same.
