Book excerpt: Introduction Migration is a multi-faceted phenomenon, which is of vital importance in the process of economic development, man-power planning, urbanization and social change. (Rao, M.S.B. 1986). It is a pragmatic and a ubiquitous phenomena as through out the globe we find that migration is contributing to the socio-economic development which enables man to overcome the tyranny of political, social, economic and psychological fluctuations of a region. Like, for instance, the partition of India and Pakistan was one of the major catalysts for migration during late 1940’s when millions of persons abandoned this land and migrated to Pakistan and vice versa. Similarly, of late, many Indian computer engineers are migrating to western countries thus leading to brain drain, which is causing a severe menace of the millennium. Since time immemorial man has been ruthlessly migrating from one place to another and nowadays because of the increased transportation and communication man is more agile. Thus migration is entirely determined by the human yearning for the decision to move. Individual migration also brings changes in the process of family formation and growth. Once migration has occurred from the land of origin, both the household and the local population must adapt to the loss or gain. However the impact of an individual migration on the origin depends on the duration of absence and remittances returned. (David, P.L. 1996).
