Abstract

Migration is a socio-economic phenomenon.There are various problems observed in the study area. Migration is the third component of population change, while two other important components of population change are of fertility and mortality. The area has no enough resource to enhance the industrial growth. Most of the parts of the state are covered by mountain region and there is a little space for agriculture. So in this area industrial activity is not suitable. In Sikkim, North district faced high rate of Out-migration Because of extreme climatic and physiographic factors. Among the four districts of the state East Sikkim district faced lowest out-migration, highest in Migration and highest net migration compare to other districts.Those people who live in rural areas more likely face a higher risk of poverty and lower incomes compared with urban areas. That’s why, a large number of rural people of Sikkim are migrating from these areas for their sustenance.
