A case study on international Migration in North Bengal, India

In the case of international migration, people migrate from one country to another. If we look at the history of this migration, we can see that people have migrated everywhere, from underdeveloped and developing countries to relatively more developed ones. However, reverse migration is often seen. People travel internationally for a better, more prosperous life, excellent education, and to escape political instability, war, and riots. This region has been selected for research because most districts in North Bengal are located near the international borders with Bangladesh, Nepal, and Bhutan. The main purpose of this work is to determine the causes of international migration. To carry out this research, various information has been collected through interviews with 110 International Migrants using a random sampling method. As a result of this study, the population of North Bengal has increased. On the other hand, the politics, economy, society, and culture of this region have been profoundly affected. If the national law grants citizenship to legal migrants and curtails illegal migration, the country's society and economy will be positively affected.
