1 Urbanization Process and Recent Trends of Migration in India Ratnesh Shukla 1 & Kashif Imdad 2 Abstract Urbanization is a process of transformation from traditional rural economies to modern urban economies through industrialization and migration. The study endeavors to understand the urbanization process and recent trends of migration in India. The paper is based on census data from 1901 to 2011 and NSS report of Result shows that the number of urban population of India has increased from 25.8 million in 1901 to million in In India, The number of towns has rapidly grown from 1827 in 1901 to 7935 in 2011 and the number of metropolitan cities has also increased from 35 in 2001 to 53 in 2011 mainly by migration. Increased decadal growth rate of migration has also shown this fact. Such ad uncontrolled urbanization in India leads massive poverty induced migration, acute urban decay and disparities. The paper concludes with planning strategies which are proposed for sustainable development of India GSS Journals. All rights reserved. Keywords: Industrialization, Migration, Urbanization, Census and Sustainable Development. 1. Introduction India is a mainly agricultural country where 72 percent of the population lives in rural areas and nearly 50 percent of the national income is contributed by the rural sector. The development of urban areas based on rural development because cities do not grow up of themselves country sides set them up to do tasks that must be performed in central places (Jefferson, 1965). In this relationship, the poor of rural areas moves to cities mainly for better livelihood and urban areas also depend on rural areas for their demand of primary requirements i.e. food, fruit, grain, milk, vegetables and labour etc. It is a finite process of urbanization in which a cycle through which a nation pass as they evolve from agrarian to industrial society (Davis and Golden, 1954). Kingsley Davis has explained urbanization as process (Davis, 1962) of switch from spread out pattern of human in urban centers. Migration is 1 Department of Geography, S.R.K.P.G.

2 Ratnesh Shukla & Kashif Imdad a root cause of progressive concentration (Davis, 1965) of population in urban unit. The term migration denotes geographical movement of people with change of residence in mode of permanent or semi permanent. Urbanization is a product of demographic explosion and poverty induced migration. Urbanization is occurring not due to urban pull but due to rural push (Datta, 2006). Employment opportunities, Better income, Health services, Education, Better lifestyle and other facilities are urban pull or positive factor. Unemployment, poverty, agony, misery, exploitation, humiliation, insecurity, inequalities and human unhappiness are known as rural push or negative factor. Due to rapid growth of population, cities resources have failed to provide services to migrated people. Migration of people, both males and females, in a developing economy like this is taking place from rural poverty to urban poverty, from one stress region to another compounding further poverty (Mukherji, 2001). This is carrying crucial environmental degradation like shortage of housing, formation of slums, declining drinking water quality, excessive air pollution and hazardous wastes management. In this way not only urban environment goes toward degradation but rural environment also. India's policy makers attempted industrialization without settlement infrastructure. This has carried uncontrolled urbanization near industrial hubs. The study also presents humanistic approach for urban planning to eliminate rural urban poverty and to reduce disparities between rural and urban area. Rural industrialization, change rural-urban relationship, employment generation and better house creation are the most important steps for sustainable development. 2. Aims and Objectives of the Study The prime aim of the study is to explore the dimensions of urbanization and migration by fulfilling the following two objectives: first, describing present urbanization process in India and secondly, identifying the emerging trends and pattern of migration in India. Finally, humanistic urban planning strategies are recommended to ameliorate problems of such poverty-induced low quality migration and to promote sustainable development. The objectives of the research are enumerated below: To understand present status of urbanization. To identify emerging trends and patterns of migration flow. To analyze the problems of rapid urbanization of and consequences of rural urban migration. To suggest planning strategies for ameliorating the regional disparities of poverty induced migration and for accelerating sustainable development. 3. Research Question Formulated prime research questions are given below: What is the urbanization status of India? What is recent trend of migration in the India? Does urbanization lead poverty induced migration in India? What can be done to reduce disparities of rural-urban areas for sustainable development? 4. Review of the Literature In a recent study, Pranti Datta (2006) illuminates on the process of urbanization in India with emphasis on level, tempo of urbanization and urban morphology by using Indian Census data during Amit Kumar and Ambrish Kumar Rai (2014) also attempt to understand the Urbanization 40

3 Process, Trend, Pattern and its Consequences based on census data during in India. Kamlesh shukla and others (2010) try to identify the process of urbanization in India with emphasis on level, ratio of urban and rural, rate of migration using the Indian Census data Mukherji (2000) has developed factor analysis-cum-canonical analysis in the study of migration urbanization disparities. Desingkar and Start (2003) focuses on seasonal migration for livelihood in India. The socio- economic consequences of migration between 1999 and 2004 are compared by Zachariah, et.al, (2004) and in their comparative study they found that effect of negative factors of migration were far more than effects of positive factors. Tiwari (2005) has examined problem and prospects of informal sector workers in Kanpur city, Bhagat (2005 & 2006) analysed conceptual issue in measurement of internal migration in India and presented trends and pattern of internal migration between Zachariah and Rajan (2007) focused on the economic and social dynamics of migration in Kerala during and analyzed implications of migration, remittances and employment in the short and long term development. Bhagat (2009) again considered migration as a emerging phenomenon from economic, political and public health point of view and also tried to explain the proposed question that the under classed are more mobile. Another study by Lusome and Bhagat (2010) analyzed access to basic amenities in urban areas by size class of cities and Towns in India for quality of life. Sridhar & others (2010) also investigated recent evidence of push or pull factors which are responsible for Census year Table 1: Population of India by residence Total Population Urban Population Urbanization Process and Recent migration in India. Shylaja (2010) analysed the effect of labour migration on the demographic and socio- economic characteristics in Kerala. 5. Methodology This paper is based on secondary migration data analysis. The census data from 1901 to 2011 and NSS report of are used as a secondary data. Analysis of data focus upon rural urban and male female composition in India, urbanization in India, composition of population growth, stream and volume of internal migration 1991 and 2001, regional variations in development and Migration and its representation by various diagram makes easy to understand present scenario. 6. Result and Discussion 6.1 Process of Urbanization in India Number of total population has increased from million in 1901 to million in 2011 whereas number of population residing in urban areas has increased from 25.9 million in 1901 to million in According to census 2011, India has a total population of million persons of which the urban population comprises of million persons accounting for an urban population of percent which is an increase from the urban population of percent reported in The table 1 shows the population of India by residence which rapidly increased after independence. Shukla, K & Others (2010) find out The reason behind this might be the development of better infra-structure and other life supportive facilities including education, hospital services and massive growth in employment opportunities. Rural population Urban Population in % 41

From table 2 it is observed that in decadal growth rate of total population is negative but urban population growth rate is 0.76 %. After independence, it starts a increasing very rapidly but any uniformity in urbanization is not observed. During a fluctuating trend is observed in urbanization. In decadal growth rate of urban population is the highest but declining trend starts during and In decade of the growth rate of urban population again tends to increase.

In this duration the number of metropolitan has also grown from 1 to 53. The number of towns has increased by 2,774 since last Census. The recorded growth rate of towns in India stands at approximately 334 percent.

6 Ratnesh Shukla & Kashif Imdad Urban Agglomeration and Out Growth in India As per the 2001 Census, An urban agglomeration is a continuous urban spread constituting a town and its adjoining outgrowths (OGs), or two or more physically contiguous towns together with or without outgrowths of such towns. An Urban Agglomeration must consist of at least a statutory town and its total population (i.e. all the constituents put together) should not be less than 20,000. At the Census 2011, there are 475 such UAs/Towns. The corresponding number in Census 2001 was 384. (Table: 4 and Figure: 4) An Out Growth (OG) is a viable unit such as a village or a hamlet or an enumeration block which possesses the urban features in terms of infrastructure and amenities such as pucca roads, electricity, taps, drainage system for disposal of waste water etc. educational institutions, post offices, medical facilities, banks etc. and physically contiguous with the core town of the UA. In the 2011 Census, 981 OGs have been identified as against 962 OGs in 2001 Census. Table 4: Urban Agglomeration and Out Growth in India Type of urban units Towns (a) Statutory Towns (b) Census Towns Urban Agglomeration Out Growths Source: Census of India, State wise Level of Urbanization in India Census 2011 shows that among the States and Union Territories, the National Capital Territory of Delhi is the most urbanized with per cent followed by the Union Territories of Chandigarh (97.25%). Lakshadweep (78.08%) climbed up to the 3 rd position in 2011 which was at 6th position in 2001 (44.46%). Puducherry (68.31%) slipped to 5 th position in 2011 from 3 rd position in 2001 (66.57%). Among the Indian states, Goa is the most urbanized state with 62.17% but according to geographical area and total population, Tamil Nadu is the most urbanized state with 48.45%, followed by Kerala (47.72%) and Maharashtra (45.23%). There is drastic change in urbanization of Kerala, only 25.96% of people were urbanized in 2001 but % people live in urban areas in Census 2011 shows all Union Territories urbanization level are higher than urbanization level of India and among the states urbanization level of Goa (62.17%), Mizoram (51.51%), Tamilnadu (48.45%),Kerala (47.72%), Maharastra 44

To analyze figure three phases of urbanization are discovered. The first phase starts from 1951 to It was duration of steady growth of urbanization. During this period in 1951 level of urbanization is and after 20 year in 1971 it is increased only 2.62%. The second phase starts from 1971 to This duration of ten year is period of rapid and high growth of urbanization. In this period highest increased (3.79%) in level of urbanization is observed. The third phase of urbanization starts from 1981 to In this period high growth with sign of slowing down is observed. It is stage of fluctuation. From 1981 to 2001 increased level of 46 urbanization is not more than 2.10% but as per census 2011, level of urbanization is increased up to 3.35% in the period of (Figure: 5). 6.2 Recent Trends of Migration It has already been noticed from Table-6 that during decade while natural increase in the urban population was 61.3% and net rural urban migration was 21.7%. The natural increase in urban population has decreased 1.9% and net rural urban migration has also decreased 0.70% in In the period of the reclassification of new towns was decreased 12% but the reclassification of new towns has again started to increase 2.2% in (Table: 6 and Figure: 6)

Among all the states net migration rate is positive and above 1.0% in developed states like Haryana(4.07%), Maharastra (3.02%), Gujarat (1.67%) and Punjab(1.66%). 47 According to NSS data which is conducted in find highest net migration rate in Maharastra (4.01%) followed by Haryana(3.52%) and Gujrat (1.63%). Among the major states the net migration rate is negative in Bihar (-5.64), Jammu and Kashmir (1.24), Kerala (-4.43), Odisha (-1.26), Tamil Nadu (-1.42), and Uttar Pradesh (-3.1). The

10 Ratnesh Shukla & Kashif Imdad estimated data of census 2011 find that Tamilnaadu (4.92%) is one of the states which has the highest net migration rate. Maharashtra (2.7%), Haryana (2.01%), Karnataka (1.68%) and Gujarat (1.64%) are another state which net migration rate is above 1% per 100 of population. Kerala and Tamil Nadu are urbanized but both have negative net migration. Due to development of IT sector in states of south India, a large number of male and female moves for employment. Maharashtra, Gujarat and Punjab are progressive states in field of industrialization, availability of employment and social development but now show declining trend in net migration rate. Andhra, Orissa, Bihar, Jharkhand, Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh are problematic states which lead poverty induced out migration due to unemployment, drought and social insecurity.

Rural to Rural migration Rural to rural migration is mainly short distance migration of male and female. It is significant characteristic of problematic undeveloped states like north east India. In this stream of migration mainly 70 percent female involves. Rural to rural migration is prime migration stream for women but in the case of only 27.2% males migrate in this stream. 2. Rural to Urban migration Rural to urban migration is the prime stream of male migration in India. It is significant characteristic of progressive and developing states of India like Gujarat, Punjab, Haryana, Tamil Nadu etc. The rural urban male migration is 39%. Urban to urban migration is also important migration stream for male in India % male migrants move from urban to urban. 3. Urban to Urban migration Urban to Urban migration is significant characteristic of urban agglomeration areas of India like Delhi, Goa etc. In Urban to Urban migration stream the percentage of male and female is only 13.1%. Near about one fourth male migratants population (24.8%) move urban to urban. The percentage of female is very less in this stream. It is only 10.3%. 48

Urban to Rural migration Urban to Rural migration is not specific stream of migration in developing countries like India. But in case of seasonal migration, Table 8: Area Based Streams of Male Female Migration this stream is also effective in mountain area. Only 5.7 % of male female migrants move in this stream.

In Inter-State Level Rural to urban migration stream is the most effective for male but Rural to Rural migration stream is still effective for female migration. (Table: 9 and Figure: 9) Intradistricts stream is prime stream of migration from 1971 to till now. According to census 2001, in intra-districts stream 58.75% male female migrants move. As NSS male female migration percentages in intradistricts stream is 56.1% and this percent is decreased up to 2.8%. Rural to Rural migration stream in Intra-Districts Level is the most effective in male female migration. Due to development of transport and communication means, Inter-District and Inter-State migration percentage is also uplifted up to 5.7 and 3.0%. (Table: 10 and Figure: 10) 52

In male migration employment-related reasons is the most important but in female migration marriage is the most important factor in India. (Table: 11 and Figure: 11) After migration employment status Before migration only 15.9 % male and 9.4% female are self employed but after migration 26.6 % male and 17.3 % female are self employed. Percentage of unemployed and Percentage of non labour are decreased after migration. After migration female employment is also increased.

Out of total houses condition of 42% houses are not good. 53% households have not drinking water within premises. 44% households have not toilet facilities within premises 81% households are having a bathroom or enclosure without roof. 57% households are not availing banking service in slum areas. Out of total slum population still 33% population lived without facilities.

But Mishra States "As a consequence whatever developmental planning has been attempted has actually increased the gulf between the rich and the poor. By decentralized and humanistic planning disparities between rural and urban area can be reduced. For sustainable development all interlinked policies are given below:- Development of short scale and cottage industries in rural areas. Make easy banking and loaning process. 56

19 Unskilled labors have to convert into skilled labors trough required and specific training programmes. Housing for slum people. Provide basic amenities. Humanistic urban planning. Rural industrialization. Employment generation. Development of means of information and technology in rural areas. Agriculture and intergraded development. Irrigation Development. Elimination of rural and urban poverty. 6.5 Conclusion We need to reduce acute poverty induced migration, widespread unemployment, References Urbanization Process and Recent neglect poor, increasing land inequality in rural areas. India s dream of developed country cannot be fulfill without sustainable development of rural environment. Ultimately India lives in villages so our policies should be promote rural development. As Desai stated "The state instead of becoming a funnel to pump out resources from the rich for the distributing them to the poor, in fact works in the opposite direction through an elaborate system of deficit financing, loans (foreign of internal) and indirect taxation - a system which hurts the poor most". Our planning should be oriented for the poor and we have to follow humanistic approach for planning and development. Bhagat, R.B.,2009.
