Revisiting the Migration Trends in Uttarakhand

Puneeta Singh Bisht

Abstract: This research examines the persistent issue of migration in Uttarakhand, focusing on Narendra Nagar Tehsil, and its profound socio-economic and cultural impacts on rural communities. It delves into the multifaceted causes of migration, including lack of development, job opportunities, and harsh environmental conditions, and highlights the exacerbated challenges posed by the post-COVID era, where many returned to their villages amidst job insecurities. The study also explores the historical context of migration patterns in the region, emphasizing the need for a deeper understanding and more comprehensive solutions to curb this trend. By conducting a thorough analysis of over 200 villages, this research aims to uncover new trends in migration, evaluate the effectiveness of government policies, and propose sustainable solutions that could mitigate out-migration and foster development in Uttarakhand. The ultimate goal is to achieve a balanced and prosperous state where the youth can find opportunities within their communities, preserving their cultural identity while contributing to local and state-wide growth.
