Man is a wanting being. He wants more as he get more. The mean to fulfill his increasing
demand is economic activity. He wants to reach the apex level of success , despite he get it or not. As a
social being he is also acquainted for social status. In todays world money making and status is deeply
interrelated. To get such kind of objectives people migrate themselves from one place to another. In this
paper, it focuses on the different causes and challenges of migration specifically on Rural-urban
Migration. The aim of this paper is to show how this challenge can be faced from policy makingperspective of developing country especially Bangladesh centered on Dhaka city.
We are thankful to our course teacher Md. Ashraful Haq Lecturer, Department of Public
Administration, Jahangirnagar University. We express our sincere thanks and profound gratitude to him.
We are indebted to the interviews that have helped us to collect information.
At last, we pray to almighty for the success of our work and submission

We have studied on 30 peoples at Farmgate in Dhaka. According to the survey, we have identified that
majority peoples are migrated from the areas which are close to Dhaka and Barisal division, Majority age
limit of migration is 20-29. And their education level is from class 1-5. By considering their city
dwelling environment it is identified that 63% people live with many families in a small house & area are
most slum. Most of the people live with their family members. After discussing the findings & percentage
of the city dwelling environment of the migrated people it is easy to understand that the living conditionof the migrated peoples is not better. They are suffering from various problems. Poverty, job searching
and natural calamities were the main push factors for migration, while better opportunity, prior migrants
and availability of job were the main pull factors behind migration. Education of the migrant and their
occupation at the Place of origin was significantly related with the push factors of the migrant. Poverty
was found to be the main push factor for illiterates and moderately educated migrants and job searching
was the main push factor among the migrants having graduate level education or more. Lastly we have
identified some policies for minimizing rural- urban migration

Migration between urban and rural areas is seen as a central element in the livelihoods of many
households in Bangladesh. Much of the literature focuses on movements of people as a result of
environmental, economic or demographic crisis. The rapid growth of rural-urban migration has been a
common feature of developing countries. In Bangladesh, too, migration flows to major cities have
alarmed observers. A study of migration is of key importance in social science, particularly in population
studies. The importance emerges not only from the movement of people between places but also from its
influence on the lives of individuals and urban growth. Rural-urban migration flows increased
dramatically during the famine of 1974 (BBS, 1996). As a consequence, the share of rural migrants as a
share of the urban population rose to 8.9% from 5.2% in 1961(Daily Ittefaq, 1999). A distinct selectivity
with respect to age, sex, caste, marital status, education and occupation is evident in rural - urban
migration (Millington, 2000). Migration differentials have significant role in identifying the nature and
strength of the socio-economic and demographic impacts of the population concerned. Many researchers
have tried to establish some uniformly applicable migration patterns for all countries at all times.
However, only migration by age has been found to be more or less similar for developed as well as
developing countries. Several studies reported that determinants of migration vary from country to
country and even within a country, it varies depending on the socio-economic, demographic and cultural
factors. High unemployment rate, low income, high population growth, unequal distribution of land,
demand for higher schooling, prior migration patterns and dissatisfaction with housing have been
identified as some of the prominent determinants of rural out-migration The propensity of migration is
usually influenced by a combination of push-pull factors. People migrated to cities and towns because
they are attracted by livelihood opportunities. Studies on migration have established a positive association
between levels of infrastructural development of a region and the magnitude of out-migration (CUS,
1990). Regardless of skill, the migrated population can find diversified livelihood opportunities with
various incomes in the towns and cities. Thus, the poor rural population considers migration a livelihood
coping strategy. On the other hand, a considerable number of the population migrates to urban areas from
villages for higher/better education, employment and investment opportunities. These privileged migrants
occasionally create employment opportunities in urban areas for the poor migrants mostly in the form of
wage laborer. Nevertheless, both these categories are driven preponderantly by economic reasons.
Information and communication also influence the decisions of migration (CUS, 1990).
Migration:
Migration (human) is the movement of people from one place to another (within country or between
countries) for the purpose of taking up permanent or semi-permanent residence. . In another word

migration is a natural process and should not provide cause for concern. There are two types of migration
Internal: within country, External: between countries. Both the internal and external may be forced or
voluntary. Some dominant push factors of rural-urban migration in Bangladesh, which included
population pressure, adverse person to land ratio, landlessness, poverty, natural calamities, law and order
situation, and lack of social and cultural opportunities. On the contrary, job opportunities and higher
wages are the dominant pull factors.
Scholars Definition
Scholars of different disciplines have tried to define migration distinctly because of their different
approaches. Very few of them are agreed on one idea. Literally the term migration means settlement or
shifting of an individual or a group of individuals from one cultural area or physical aspects to another,
more or less permanently.
In the New Webster Dictionary as The act or an instance of moving from one country, region or place
to settle in another(2) the act or an instance of moving from one area to another in search of work.
According to Theodore Caplow migration is strictly speaking, the change of residence and need notnecessary involve any change of occupation, but it is closely associated with occupational shift of one
kind or another.
Eisentadt looks at migration as the physical transition of any individual or a group from one society to
another. This transition usually involves abandoning one social setting and intering another and
permanent one.
Migration: As a Problem
The urbanization problem is described using data on urban population growth over the past 50 years.
Urban population growth is generally far more rapid than total population growth, with about half the
urban growth accounted for by migrants from the rural areas. Developing country cities are growing far
more rapidly than those in the developed countries. Shantytowns and similar makeshift settlements
represent over one-third of developing country urban residents.
Many LDC urban areas have experienced dualistic development, where a modern formal sector exists
alongside a large urban informal sector. About half of the urban labor force works in the informal sector.
Characteristics of urban informal sector jobs include:
y low skilly low productivityy self-employmenty lack of complementary inputs

Todaro Theory of Rural Urban migration
The Todaro Model postulates that migration proceeds in response to urban-rural differences in expected
income rather than actual earnings. The fundamental premise is that migrants consider the various labor
market opportunities available to them in the urban sectors & choose they maximizes their expected gains
from migration. A Schematic framework how the varying factors affecting the migration decision interact
is given below in a figure:
In essence, the theory assumes that members of the labor force, both actual and potential, compare their
expected incomes for a given time horizon in the urban sector (the difference between returns & costs of
migration) with prevailing average rural incomes and migrate if the former exceeds the latter. According
to the economic framework of the developing country like Bangladesh, is beset by a chronic
unemployment problem that a typical migrant cannot expect to secure a high paying urban job
immediately. Sometimes with considerable human capital like having secondary or university certificate
have much opportunity to get job in the country. A typical migrant who gains a modern sector job can
expect to earn twice the actual real income in an urban area then in a real environment may be of little

consequence if the actual probability of his securing the higher paying job within , say, a one year
period is one chance in five. In the view of the facts that the vast majority of migrants are between the
ages of 15-24 the decision to migrate should be represented on the basis of a longer- time, more
permanent income calculation.
A Diagrammatic Presentation of Haris-Todaro Model
This process of unemployment equilibrium between urban expected wages and average rural income
rather than an equalized rural-urban wage as in the traditional neoclassical free- market model can also be
explained by a diagrammatic portrayal of the basic Harris- Todaro model. This is described in the
following figure.

In the above figure two sectors are compared for showing the urban unemployment equilibrium are
described. The demand for the labor in agricultural sector is given by a negatively slopped line AA.
Labor demand in manufacturing industries is identified by MM. The total labor force is given by line
OAOM. In the neoclassical flexible wage, would be established at WA=WM, with OALA workers in
agriculture & OMLM workers employed in urban manufacturing. All available workers are therefore
employed.
Where,
WA is agricultural income
LM is employment in manufacturing
LUS is total urban labor pool
WM is the urban minimum wage
If urban wage rate increase to W-M, which will be higher than WA. Then OMLM workers will get job and
the rest OALM workers will be settled in the rural agricultural sector at wage rate O AWA. So, there is a
wage gap between these two wages. If the wage of the urban labor in these rate then & rural workers is
free to migrate then despite the job availability of only OMLM jobs, they are willing to take their chance in
the urban job lottery. The chance of their getting job will be discussed by the total urban labor pool, LUS.
The new unemployment equilibrium will create in the point of point of Z. Here the urban rural wage gap
is W-M WA. OALA workers are still in the agricultural sector, and OMLM, of these workers have modernsector jobs paying W-M wages. The rest, OMLA-OMLM are either unemployed or engaged in low income
informal activities. ( Todaro et al:2009)
Important conclusions from the Todaro model
y The need to reduce the urban bias of development strategies and encourage integrated ruraldevelopment. This will reduce the wage differential between the urban and rural area.
y Creating urban jobs is an insufficient solution to the urban unemployment problem because moremigration is induced.
y Expanding education opportunities often results in more urban migration.y Urban wage subsidies are counterproductive as they encourage more migration by increasing the
probability of finding a job.

4 persons (33.3%) have no academic qualification at all who earn 3000-5999 on an average monthly
while 3 persons (16.6%) in immobile sector earn this quantity. In immobile sector 1 person (5.5%)

completed primary level and earn 6000-8999 monthly on an average. Most of the persons of immobile
sector earn form 12000-18000 monthly as their educational background is higher than the others. Most of
the persons completed at least class 7 and 2 persons have passed H.S.C and more. It is understood that the
educated persons include themselves in the immobile sector and their income level is higher than the
mobile one. That means, immobile sectors are popular specially too educated migrates because of higher
returns than the mobile sectors.

Marriage is an important factor which influences migration of people very much. Most of the persons
who were asked the questions about migration are married. Only one person among them is unmarried.
That means marriage influences the migration. The reasons may be increase in the income level, higher
living standard, increase in the respect level and availability of modern amenities etc. The only one person
who is unmarried is at the age of 20-29. It also means that the persons were married off at an average of

20-29. At this level of age migration rate is also high. After marriage as more income is necessary, the
persons start to migrate to Dhaka from villages.

A lot of causes are responsible to the migration of people from villages to Dhaka. The main reasons are
expectancy of better income, solving unemployment problem and so on. 26 persons who are related to
mobile and immobile sectors said that the main reason to come Dhaka is to earn a better income than the
past. 14 persons said that to remove unemployment problem, they came to Dhaka. Better lifestyle
attracted 4 individuals to leave their villages and reached to Dhaka. To increase the social status and to
avoid the frequently occurring natural calamities some people also came to Dhaka. But in the analysis,
expectancy of better income opportunity and solving unemployment problem are the main reasons behind
the migration. This is because the employment opportunity is much higher than the villages and income is
also a motivating factor to leave the villages. On the other hand, villages in Bangladesh is filled with
unemployment problem and income level is very much low.

Table4: Causes for Choosing Dhaka City- according to questionnaire (M)
Opportunity of employment is the basic reason to most of the migrated persons to select Dhaka to come.
As it is the capital city of our country and it has larger employment sectors than any other city, 8 persons
related to mobile sector and 17 persons related to immobile sector chose Dhaka to come and earn their
livelihood. Increasing of living standard is also another main reason to select Dhaka. As income level is
higher in Dhaka, the persons who are living in Dhaka have relatively high living standard than the rural
people. This factor attracts a huge amount of individuals to come Dhaka. Only 2 persons came to Dhaka
because of nearness of their home town from Dhaka. Having relatives in Dhaka influences also to select
Dhaka to come as it is very easy to be permanent to those who have relatives. But the main reason is the
available opportunity of employment in Dhaka. Only because of this reason every day many people select
Dhaka as their earning place.

Residential condition of persons related to immobile sector is higher than the mobile sector as their
income is higher. 33.33% mobile businessmen live in slums while only 5.5% immobile sector
businessmen live in slums. 50% of mobile sector businessmen live in tin shed building and 16% in
building while 66% persons of immobile sectors live in tin sheds. 33% of persons related to immobile
sectors live in full building. The slums are much cheaper than the tin sheds and buildings. As a result the
lower income earners live in slums but it is rear in immobile sector because they have a higher income
than the mobile businessmen. Slums cost 1000-1500 per month for fair while tin sheds require 1500-2500

related persons than mobile sector related persons. It is seen that who earn 3000-5999 live in slums and
the persons who earn 15000 or more also live in slum. It depends on their choosing and social status.

Dhaka is a city with a large population. People generally migrate here because of diversified employment
opportunity. As the city is overpopulated the commercial and residential area becomes amalgamated. So
the city dwellers are deprived of the facilities of a mega city. When we ask the respondents to compare
the basic elements of living between Dhaka city and village then we get the above criteria. In case of
drinking water most of respondents prefer village to town cause of the availability of pure drinking water.
In case of electricity, medical facility and educational facilities they prefer city to village because we all
know that a city is more advance concern to village. On the other hand concerning security most of the
respondents feel secured in the village than the city. But as a capital city it should ensure the citizens the
optimum securities.

Most of the people are interested to stay with family,but in some cases some con not effort to maintain
family due to lacking of standard amount of money. Some people with lowest income maintain family
because of having more than one earning person, where the other members are self sufficient. On the
contrary the member with higher income (in context of informal business) cannot stay with family
because they have to maintain more than one member who is totally dependent on him. In our study
respondents said that if the income level increases then they might bring the family. Since other members
are dependent on the migrated one so they have the intention to be permanent at Dhaka city thus hey canpass their lives. If they do not do so the maintaining of lives will be so difficult. But here is the problem
in this way, if poor section of people are continuously being migrated then the Dhaka city will have to
face enormous problem. It should be noted that Dhaka is already a giant city which is not able to ensure
better habitation of people. Here every day a large number of problems are raising. So our mission would
be to discourage backward section people to be migrated by providing enough facilities throughout their
region for saving the Dhaka city from being Giant.

village. Some of the people are intended to obtain the formal job and in our study all of them are from
mobile community. The most notable thing is that both the mobile and immobile have the income level of
10000 and above havent response in this case.

Almost every districts people are intended to be stayed at Dhaka city due to various reasons. The number
of migrated people varies from region to region. In our project it has been revealed that maximum
percentage of people are migrated from Barisal division and a little percentage from Khulna division.
Since the migrated people are very from Barisal so, there may be some strong factor either pull or push or
the both. The devastating natural calamities takes place at coastal area like Barisal and a large number of
people are compelled to seek livelihood in different areas. So they prioritize Dhaka city as first choice.
Probably its the main factor responsible for migration. Where as though Khulna is in coastal region but
there are diversified opportunities like industries, port so the local people prefer Khulna to Dhaka. Other
areas people are found frequently Dhaka has diversified employment opportunity.
Part 3
Policy recommendation
Bangladesh is an under developed country, where 75% people live in the rural area but our capital city
Dhaka is over populated. More than 20 million people live in Dhaka. It has made a mess system which
destroy natural environment of Dhaka city. Some policy should be taken by government. I think these
policies are:
-
8/6/2019 Final Assnigmnent
21/23
21 | P a g e
Government should think about urbanization besides the highway all over the country. This is
waiting for grant in our national parliament. We appreciate government to implement this policy as early
as possible.
The local area may be deprived of development with the impact of the centralization of every aspect. If
the region based development is occurred and provide a large career opportunities then people might not
be migrated from one area to another in case of any problem and they will be able to make them self
sufficient. It is important to be noted that, in our study we found most of the people are not interested in
staying at Dhaka and only the pull factor is responsible for so. They feel better village than the city and
will certainly leave the this place if they get to meet the minimum requirments.With the increase of
population if the local area based industry can be introduced, with the sufficient wage and salary of
workers and employees respectively then people would not be migrated. In this edition number of
incentives should be provided to them, so they can contribute to raise productivity. Moreover the existing
system of the production should be improved. Due to the devastating Natural calamities people from
Barisal area are migrated to Dhaka city because of lacking of employment opportunities. So here this
policy is suitable.
People should be inspired to follow the Contributory Reinvestment Fund, thus they are interested to be
launched entrepreneurial activities. And for that government should initiate new measure to provide loan
with easy condition. The existing system of loan procedure (microcredit program) is much hazardous with
immense condition and that is why poor people cannot overcome the problem. Evidence shows in this
regard, people are continuously being suppressed and losing the capability leading life in the village area
and coming to urban area for higher income. In this case CRF can play important role.
Another core factor is most of the root level landlords; politicians come Dhaka for better life or
to educate his son or daughter. We think that the English medium school, shopping mall, universities
should be established in rural areas by the government.
Different famous things like:
-card of Bogra
- Kachagolla of Natore
- Rashmalai of Comilla
-Mangoes of Rajshahi
-Litchis of Dinajpur etc.
We can encourage those businessman to broad their business on their own town. Govt. and
private sectors should provide available opportunities.
Banking sector can play important roles in preventing migration. If they started branches in the
rural area, it will create a huge employment opportunities. It will also facilitate the area based businesses.
As a result, people will remove the thinking of coming Dhaka instead of staying in villages.

Conclusion
Migration is one of the burning topics nowadays as there are more than 200 millions migrated people
throughout the globe. This is obviously negative because it facilitates Brain-Drain. That means it makes
one country or region meritless which obstacles the proper and speedy development of that country or
region. These migrations are also common in our country especially in Dhaka as it is our capital city. Our
govt. and private sectors should take immediate steps to prevent this problem as well as make speedy
development and productivity of the rural res. The policies have to be implemented perfectly. Our
assignment includes the causes of migration towards Dhaka. We also recommended some policies to
prevent migration.
