Bihar is a historical and culturally rich state, but for the last several decades it has been struggling with a serious socio-economic challenge-a large migration for employment. This problem not only affects the economy of the state, but also has a profound impact on the future of society, family and youth.
Who does migration and why?
Every year millions of youth of Bihar turn to states like Delhi, Maharashtra, Punjab, Karnataka in search of better employment.
The main questions are:
- Who escapes?
- Where do they go?
- What circumstances do they live and work?
- What are social and family factors affecting migration?
The answer to these questions helps us understand the pattern and causes of migration of Bihar.
Major reasons for migration
- Lack of employment opportunities
There is a huge shortage of industries in Bihar.
Agriculture has also not been able to become a permanent means of livelihood, as it is deprived of modern technology and investment. - Reduction in education and skill development
Students have to go outside the state for quality education and technical training. - Lack of infrastructure
Facilities like roads, electricity and water supply were limited so far. Although it has improved in recent years, it is not enough for the development of industries.
What do government figures say?
- 2.9 crore people have migrated to other states for employment from Bihar.
- This number is about 20 percent of the total population of the state.
- This figure belongs to the people recorded on the e -ram portal, while there are crores of people who did not register on this portal.
- Therefore the actual figure is likely to be far more.
Effect on family and social life
The migration affects not only economic, but also on social and family fabric.
- People are forced to stay away from their family.
- Trains travel with crowds, difficulty returning home on holidays, and emotional distances are common problems.
- Social activities also decline due to decrease in the number of young men in villages.
- The responsibility of education and care of children falls on women alone, which increases mental and economic stress.
What is the solution?
The solution to the migration problem is multi -faceted and long -term. The following measures can be taken for this:
- Local employment generation
- Micro, small and medium industries (MSME) be promoted
- Startups and local enterprises get subsidy and support
- Education and skill development
- Installation of technical institutions
- Professional training centers should be strengthened
- infrastructure development
- Construction of better roads, electricity and industrial areas
- Policy reform to attract investment
- Government and private sector cooperation
- Employment generation under PPP model
- Effective implementation of government schemes
