Abstract
[The problem of rural to urban migration, especially in Third World countries, has been a matter of major concern in the recent past. Traditionally, the processes of economic development – of industrialization, urbanization and globalization – have been associated with increasing demand for worker. But later on it has been found that in most Third World countries the supply of labour, stimulated by an exodus from rural areas, has been far in excess of the demand for labour generated by industrialization. This has caused serious imbalances in the rural areas from where the labour has been pushed out and also pulled in urban areas into which the rural labour has migrated and continues to do so. However, there is common perception prevailing among the potential migrant in rural areas is opportunities and living conditions are better urban areas and this is one among the several factor shaping the decision making process to migrate]
