There has been a steady increase in India in the number of migrants. In the year 1961 there were about 144 million migrants by place o f birth and in 2001 it has increased to 307 million. Various reasons arc attributed to the reasons on migration. The working and living conditions o f the Migrants, who could easily be absorbed in informal activities in urban areas are far from satisfactory. The present study is an attempt to find out the reasons for migration and titeir living conditions. To carry out die study, 100 migrants in Tirupur cits' were selected at random and administeriiig an interview .schedule data for the study was collected during the mondi o f November 2011. The current study exhibits that economic factors outweigh social factors for the people to migrate. It further corroborates the Todaros model o f migration which says that migration takes place because o f differences in expected wage rates. The analysis reveals that the qualits’ of life o f the sample migrant households is far from satisfactory. | en_US |
