Migration of Santal Labourers from Jharkhand: A Case Study

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Humanities and Social Science - Year 2018, Vol 23, Issue 12

Abstract

Labour out- migration among the Santal labourers has been taking place since pre independence period. The Santal tribals lived in the district of Santal Parganas which was a part of Bihar then, which got separated in 2001 and now in Jharkhand. Since the emergence of Jharkhand more than 15 years have passed but economic condition among the Santal tribe has hardly improved. The region is gripped under poverty, illiteracy and under development, which mars the picture from every human development index. This grim situation compels the Santal tribals and other tribal labourers to migrate to other destinations for employment and survival. The present paper is a deeper study about the migration among the Santal tribe. The paper aims to know the causes of migration, impact of migration and also to know the difficulties faced by the Santal migrant labourers.
