Abstract

Migration is one among the three major components of Population change. Broadly Migration is of two kinds one is in migration and other is out migration. Out Migration may be described as outward movement from the place of origin among the migrating people between regions or countries. Immigration and emigration are usually reserved for migration into and out of countries. It may be temporary, with the intention of returning in future, or permanent; or may not have decided between these alternatives at the time of migration. Bilaspur District in Himachal Pradesh lies in foothills of Shivalik Mountains. It is worse affected by large scale economic activities like Construction of Large Dam and submergence of large fertile area in the Govind Sagar Lake, establishment of large industry i.e. Gagal Cement Plant, Construction of National and state Highways and every increasing urbanisation. As a result many families got uprooted and thus migrated to other places permanently. So to know the nature and extent of out migration, a study was conducted.
