This book delves into the evolving dynamics of out-migration from Northeast India; a region historically associated with in-migration. It examines the shifting migration patterns, particularly the increasing trend of out-migration to Delhi and other parts of India, and the socio-economic affects on both migrants and their families. This book delves into the evolving dynamics of out-migration from Northeast India: a region historically associated with in-migration. It examines the shifting migration patterns, particularly the increasing trend of out-migration to Delhi and other parts of India, and the socio-economic implications for both migrants and their families left behind. Focusing on the experiences of out-migrants from Northeast India, the book highlights their distinctive migration patterns characterised by predominant engagement in the service sector, setting them apart from the other migrants who are largely concentrated in construction and manual labour, challenging conventional narratives of migration. It explores the factors driving migration, the socio-economic characteristics of migrants, their employability, the increasing instances of discrimination, and the neighbourhoods they inhabit. Additionally, through its rich field-based studies, it presents a poignant analysis of the impact of migration on left behind family members, particularly elderly parents, offering an insightful perspective on the migration process. This volume is a valuable resource for policymakers and scholars studying labour migration, urbanisation, and the socio-economic complexities of migration. It will particularly appeal to those interested in South Asian Studies, South Asian Economics, and the evolving patterns of migration in diverse socio-economic contexts.
